one way to do it is with mri_concat, something like

mri_concat f???.img --o f.nii.gz

if your individual volumes are f000.img f001.img etc

I'm not sure. When I just tried it, it converted to .nii.gz. Maybe it has to do with the version of fsl being used? I'm posting this to the freesurfer listserv to see if anyone else has ideas.

Thanks Kara. I tried fslmerge on my images and the result is a single .img / .hdr pair, not a nii or nii.gz file. Do you have any clue? The reason to convert to nii is that fsfast seems to require nii file.

Thanks,
Xu

If I remember correctly, you can use the fslmerge command to merge
all the .hdr files into one nifti file.

Try this in the directory where your analyze files are:
fslmerge -t outputname *.hdr

outputname is whatever you want to call your new nifti file

The result will be outputname.nii.gz

Hope that helps!

Does anybody know how to convert a series of Analyze files
into a single nii file? Each analyze file is a single 3D
volume at a time point; the nii file would be 4d.

Thanks,
