Guys,

I am using Philips DICOMs from INTERA and ACHIEVA generation systems without any problems. So far I have done about 600 analyses. INTERAs are on 11.4 software version and ACHIEVAs went from release 2 up to the current 2.6.1 (and soon release 3)

However the images do not go directly from the scanner (export to  DICOM files). Instead They go from the PACS to OsiriX (dcmtk) to dcmtk. The last one stores them on a disc where FreeSurfer finds them.

Best

Hi,

I am trying to convert from dicom to mgz (or nii) in Freesurfer by using dicom files as the one attached to this message. However, Freesurfer reports that this file is not a dicom. It seems weird to me since it can be opened with MRIcro, SPM as dicom, but not with Freesurfer. Could anyone tell me if there is another Freesurfer command to covert these dicoms to mgz from the command line?

Thanks in advance.

Best,
Jose
