Hello Freesurfer Developers,

I was going to reconstruct MPRAGE images from GE 3T machine. 

First I used this command:

dcmunpack -src . -scanonly scan.log

It made just scan.log file for me. Then I used this command: 

unpacksdcmdir -src /<my dicoms pathways> -targ <my output directory> -scanonly scan.log

However, it made 3 files for me; dicomdir.sumfile, parse.status and unpack.log, but they were 0 bites. Furthermore, the following message also appeared on the terminal: 

ERROR: parsing /hpc/mtay316/tutorial4/practice_with_data/dicoms/ 
See logfile /hpc/mtay316/tutorial4/practice_with_data//unpack.log for more details

I used this command for SIEMENS data and it worked. Apparently this code just works on SIEMENS data not GE. So now what is the code that I can use for GE dcm images?

1) FREESURFER Version: freesurfer-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-stable6-20170118

2) Platform: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

3) unpack.log : see attached
