If you tried to load the "img" file, caret will ask the user for the type of file. Do not select the img file.
Try selecting and loading the "hdr" file. If caret is getting stuck loading the file, then there is probably a problem the with hdr/img files, most likely the byte order is incorrect so that dimensions appear enormous to Caret. How were the hdr/img files created? If you have AFNI installed, try running "mayo_analyze <name-of-hdr- file>". What is the output?
