- Sorry, I don't have a 4D translation. The images displayed in MRIcro are up to MRIcro; different viewers will show them differently.
- Thanks, this works well. How about creating a 4D stack from the Siemens Mosaic Dicom volumes? BTW, when I look at the .nii files with MRIcro, they are upside down. Could you please explain?
- Is there a DicomSiemensMosaictoOneFileNIFTI conversion available? I have read that SPM5 can read these.
- It wasn't the file name, the number "-0.3842953174286 " was stuck in a DICOM field that is defined to be at most 16 characters (it has 17). I removed the 16 character check.
- That did the trick. Do you think that the file name issue is peculiar to our Siemens equipment? Should I let them know? BTW, MRIcro shows the image rotated 180 degrees. I presume there is another viewer for NIFTI files..........
- It looks like the space after that negative number is causing problems. I've removed the restriction on the size; please try the attachment.
- I enclose the output from Debabeler from an attempt to translate one of the Siemens Mosaic files in Part 10 format to 2 file NIFTI. Any ideas? Do you need me to send one of the images?

- I've downloaded your Debabeler software to convert my Siemens mosaic fMRI data to NIFTI. It works fine if the input data is in the Siemens native .ima format, but not for the DICOM outputted format ( Part 10 I presume)which I burned to a CD with its Dicomdir. There are input errors during the translation phase. Can you please advise?
