Hello all,

I sent out an e-mail earlier about generating a gradient table and am still a little bit confused. In order to use DtiStudio properly, it seems that one needs a gradient table to go along with their data. Our lab is currently using a 3T Excite GE scanner to perform our DTI scans, but we also have a Siemens scanner for which the following questions apply. Within the dicom header of the GE scanner, under the tag #DTI Diffusion Dir (0019, 01E0), we are able to tell the number of gradients, but not able to find the x,y,z information. 

Is there a program that can generate gradient tables to go along with our dicom data, or can it actually be found within the header - and if so, where? Finally I was curious as to whether there are standard gradient tables that go along with specific scanners every time a DTI scan is performed.

Thank you very much for all of your help, it is much appreciated.

Sincerely,

Tapan Jani
