Hi Tobias, I assume you did get your image data in DICOM format. While the data is typically saved in multiple files (for example one file per image slice of a 3-d or 4-d image), it is actually organized a bit differently based on patient, study, and series. I can only further assume that your DICOM data may contain multiple images of your hand, possibly mixing all those files of individual slices in a single folder. For example, it is quite common to also have low-res localizer images or images for different MR sequences.
Hence, I highly recommend to use the DICOM Browser in MITK to open your image(s), instead of File->Open. Click on the big DICOM button in the toolbar at the top. The DICOM Browser should open. On the Import tab click on Scan directory and select the root directory of your data. You should now see at least an entry in the patient widget. Click on it to see at least an entry below in the study and series widgets. The entries in the series widget are the actual individual 3-d images of your hand. You can select them and click on the View button at the top of the DICOM Browser or just double-click on them to open them in the Data Manager and finally see them in the Standard Display of the MITK Workbench. Hope that helps, Stefan PS: Try out the latest MITK v2025.08, which was released today! :) PPS: While the DICOM browser is active, you can press F1 to open a context-specific help page where you can read more about the DICOM browser. The same applies to other plugins of the MITK Workbench. ________________________________________ Von: Schaumann, Stephen <s.schaum...@dkfz-heidelberg.de> Gesendet: Dienstag, 26.

Functionally, there is no restriction as to which data can be loaded because of this. If your data is in a common file format that MITK can handle, you should be able to load it. When you've loaded your data, do you see multiple entries listed in the "Data Manager" view? If so, by default the highest one will be rendered on top of the entries below it. In that case, try changing the visibility or remove the highest entry to see the image listed below. If there is only a single entry in the "Data Manager", what you see is the only image currently loaded. Either there are more images that you haven't loaded into MITK yet, or that's all there is. In case you are unable to load all your data, maybe give us an overview of the folder structure and what exactly you are currently doing to load the data. Best regards, Stephen ________________________________ Von: Tobias Schmetzer <t.schmet...@tum.de> Gesendet: Dienstag, 26.

I am a computer engineer and I had an accident on my hand. I came across this great tool to analyse my personal MRT data of my hand in new ways such as advanced segmentation because the radiologists seem to have a hard time encountering the location causing the trouble with conventional tools. After I loaded my data I can only see a low resolution of the data and in the main window I find the statement „Not for use in diagnosis ir treatment“. The radiology that recorded the data claims that all data is available in the data package but the computer doesn’t have the required setup/license/calibration to display all data. What setup is required to display it or is there any option to avoid this check at my own risk? I mean, I can still discuss this with a specialialist on a calibrated computer later. Thanks in advance for any hints!
