Hello Freesurfers,
I am a beginner and have a question about the dicom file I need to select to do the recon-all process.
I ran dcmunpack on the DICOM files I have with the following result

I don't have one specific .dcm file to run the recon-all command
The directory structure on the CD that I have has the 9 Folders (SE00000, SE000001 ...) Each folder has 6 - 25 files (IM00000, IM00000 ...)
There are a total of 225 files When I use the software that came with the CD to see the images, I can see that each folder has series of images in different angles of the skull (different resolutions)
Does recon-all use all the 225 images in all the folders? If yes how do I know which of the above dcmunpack results is the best option to start the recon-all process? I appreciate your help.
Thanks Sravan
