Follow the instructions to install MRIcron on your hard disk - this should create a program named dcm2nii.exe (Windows) or dcm2nii (Unix).Hippocampus), however MRIcron shows the image orientation correctly. Note that the scans were acquired withĭifferent orientations (with the FLAIR along the axis of the

The same individual (the sagittal T1 is shown in grayscale, and theĬoronal FLAIR is shown in reds). The images from an individual can use the scanner position as aīeginning estimate for alignment. Like SPM5 will tend to be more accurate at coregistering images, as all Should reduce your chance of making left-right errors. NIfTI software that can read the spatial information (MRIcron and SPM5) One nice feature about NIfTI is that theįormat attempts to keep spatial orientation information. Programs like FSL and MRIcron can also readĬompressed (nii.gz) images. Pair of files (hdr/img, compliant with most Analyze format viewers), orĪ single file (nii). Theįormat is simple, compact and versatile. Standard was designed for scientific analysis of brain images.

It is natively compiled for Windows, Linux x86, Mac OSX PPC DCM2NII is a stand-alone program that is distributed with NIfTI is a modern incarnation of the Analyzeįormat, but includes important information like the orientation of the Scanner format to the NIfTI format used by FSL, SPM5, MRIcron and many This software is provided under the BSD 2-Clause license.ĭCM2NII attempts to convert images from the proprietary On the other hand, dcm2nii is useful for archival studies with legacy proprietary format that predated DICOM. In general, dcm2niix is typically better suited for modern DICOM images. While I hope it is generally robust and useful, active development has moved to dcm2niix.
