FS does not natively uncompress jpeg compressed dicoms, however, you can get and use the dcmdjpeg to do the decompression like this
dcmdjpeg +te dicomfile dicomfile
this will overwrite the dicom file, so make a backup. You will have to run this for all of your dicoms

Hi Freesurfers,
I'm trying to convert CT dicoms to the MGZ format, but am getting an error saying "the pixel data cannot be loaded as it is JPEG compressed." I originally got dicoms without the extension .dcm, but then resaved them with the extension. Using either version didn't work. If you can shed some light on this, that would be great!
Thanks, m
