Dear Freesurfers,
Reading through the mailing list I understood how to process our nmr MEPRAGEs and I would like to double-check we are using unpacksdcmdir correctly.
Unpacking with unpacksdcmdir gives me two nifti files, a 4-echo nifti file (92MB) and a 1-echo nifti file (23MB). Am I correct to understand that the smaller 1-echo nifti file is the RMS created automatically? Can you confirm that this is the file that I want to send to recon-all vis-a-vis VBM processing?
From the unpacklog:
7 MEMPRAGE_tfl_mgh_multiecho_1mm_iso ok 256 256 176 4 MR.1.3.12.2.1107.5.2.19.45407.2014103021271096561867095 8 MEMPRAGE_tfl_mgh_multiecho_1mm_iso ok 256 256 176 1 MR.1.3.12.2.1107.5.2.19.45407.2014103021271165037167199
Thanks for your time!
Johann
