[Mristudio-users] Question about format - Siemens DCM

[Christine Vidal]

Dear All,

I am having some problems opening my DTI data in DTIStudio.
I work on a Siemens scanner that has the TIM system. The output from the scanner are dicom files that each contains one volume (1 volume /direction). As an example, if I acquire data with an angular resolution of 64, I will get 65 dicom volumes (1 more for b0 volume).  
It looks like all the examples shown in DTIStudio are examples using dicom that contain 1 slice of brain only. 

When I open my dicom volumes in DTI studio, the 3D shows the 2D cuts in a panel.

Has anyone had the same problem? Any idea on what to do?

Thanks
Christine
