Dear John

 

I am sorry to reply you so late. Thanks for your reply. I tried pressing the DICOM Import button of SPM12, but it did not work. I understand the DICOM is a complicated file format and thanks for your hints.  I am learning it currently. I will contact the provider of the data.

 

Thank you.

 

Best Regard

They look like DICOM files to me.  Try pressing the DICOM Import button of SPM12 to see what happens if you try to convert them to NIfTI.

 

DICOM is quite a complicated file format, so not all software will work for different varieties of DICOM.  The actual DICOM standard requires several thousand pages to describe, and scanner manufacturers often extend the standard for their own purposes, which can make it even more complicated.  Writing code that handles every possible flavour of DICOM is difficult, and software is generally only tested using the files that are available to the developers.

 

Best regards,

Dear all,

 

My name is CHEN. I am an SPM newbie. I have a question about how to convert the DICOM to NIfTI. I am engaged the research from the National Tsing Hua University. I got the file which is acquired from 3D T1-weighted images and  T2 FLAIR. I was told these data is DICOM data. However, these data do not show the type of data. The data is attached(I only put parts of data due to the privacy of client). Does anyone know which type these data are?

 

If these data are DICOM, why I can not convert these DICOM data to NIfTI by mricron(dcm2nii), the dcm2niigui show these data are "invalid floating point operation."

 

Thank you.
