I can’t think of anything in particular that may cause problems.  I would suggest contacting the authors of the other software to see if it is possible that it does not handle square images, or images with dimensions that are not a power of two.

 

Best regards,

Hi,

I am using SPM2.  There is not problem to open the file w*.img with SPM, I think that the Bas Gan is not compatible with the NIFTI format.  

Is there difference any between the r*.img file and w*.img files from the point of view of Analyze file? Because I am able to open the first one but not the second one with Bas Gan.

 

Thanks in advance!

File formats depend on which version of SPM you are using.  SPM5 uses NIFTI format, as described at http://nifti.nimh.nih.gov/ .  Many other fMRI analysis packages also use NIFTI, but I’m not sure if BasGan is compatible with it.  It may be an idea to check whether the w*.img files can be displayed in SPM.  Maybe something went badly wrong during the processing.

Dear all,

I am using a new software for DATSCAN images analysis that is called Basal Ganglia

(www.disi.unige.it/person/IngugliaF/BasGan/).

I would like to use this software with images normalized by SPM but I have problem to open the normalized images (w*.img) produced by SPM. I don' t have problem to open the realigned images (r*.img).

Is there in the analyze file produced by SPM normalization some offset or scale fields that are different from an usual analyze file?

 

Thanks in advance!
