Dear Cinly,
storing patient information in the header of the analyze file is ofcourse a
possibility.
what i do is: put the patient id and scandate in the filename, for instance:
filename:
1234567_20040101.hdr 1234567_20040101.img
Usually, i convert dicom-files to ANALYZE and automatically grab patient-id
and scandate from the DICOM-header.
This works fine on scans from my own site. (you might run into trouble when
using scans from other sites)
Hope this helps,
bye,

Legally, Analyze 7.5 provides the following feild to store Patient
related information:
char scannum[10];
char patient_id[10]
char exp_date[10];
char exp_time[10];
char hist_un0[3];
where number in (brackets -1) is the maximum number of letters allowed.
minus one because we need a space for termination character. normally '\0' .
See www.mayo.edu/bir/PDF/ANALYZE75.pdf
I'm sure if you put the values in these fields, FSL will carry the data
through to all generated results. However, I will not count on it for
every Analyze Viewer in this world to read these information or transfer
them properly.
thanks,
Cinly
