Hi Susumu:

   Ok... Thanks you very much for your answer... Yes... I am asking 
about read analyze files in DtiMapping only... I know that DtiStudio can 
read and write Analyze in other parts of the software (for example, 
DtiStudio could write Color-FA in Analyze)...

Yes... Analyze can handle 4D files... for example, in one Analyze file 
it could be included the 30 directions 3-D volumes...

I think that it could be a good idea to add DtiStudio the option to read 
Analyze files for the tensor calculation because it is a widely used 
format in different medical software...

Other question: sometime ago you mention a beta version of the newest 
3.0 version of DtiStudio... I am very interested if I could be a beta 
tester of that sofware... Could you please tell me ?...

Sincerely,
