External Email - Use Caution        

If an MRI scan produced many folders with many images in each folder, how do you know which to run the dcmunpack command on?

For example:

Hi Allison

The parameter you give the -i flag is the file name for a single slice in the correct dicom series (the t1-weighted scan).

Cheers

Hi,
    I'm following the tutorial for dcmunpack, but am getting stuck here:

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

welcome to freesurfer!
To convert from dicom to mgz, you can do a couple of things:
use mri_convert, eg,
mri_convert /path/to/dicomfile mprage.mgz
Then run recon-all like
recon-all -i mprage.mgz -s subjectname -all
You can also use dcmunpack to unpack all volumes from a dicom directory

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can point me to a good tutorial that would focus on how to upload and process DICOM data into FS / FreeView. 

I have a recent Triage Brain Atrophy report from NeuroQuant and would like to see how this compares to results generated in FS. 

I am a brand-new user and just installed FS on my computer. 


Thank you,
Allison O.
