Hi again,

 

I now found the reason for my problem.  (it always takes a long time until I 
find time to revisit such problems). I just post my finding for the case that 
anyone else experiences the same problem and searches for a solution. The crude 
behavior (wrong number of dicom files found) is only observable when the dicom 
files are stored on a samba share. When converting locals files, everything 
works on Ubuntu as fine as on other distributions. It’s independent of the 
dcm2nii version (true for NeuroDebian and Centos Version) . Seems that it’s 
neither a direct dcm2nii problem nor a NeurDebian version problem but an 
interaction between dcm2nii and Ubuntu. Both, dinifti and mriconvert find the 
correct number of files (and dinifti works with IMA).

 

Best, Peter

It might indeed be the case that I replaced the May 5 version with the December 
12 version from my CentOS machine (I thought I did it the other way around) but 
in any case: the behavior did not differ at all.

 

Does that mean you are seeing the problematic behavior with the NeuroDebian 
version from May _and_

with a Centos version from December on the same Ubuntu machine, but it works on 
Centos?

 

This would be surprising, as dcm2nii is self-contained and doesn't use any 
system libs:

 

% ldd /usr/bin/dcm2nii

            not a dynamic executable

 

If you can confirm this, we might need to look for reasons beyond the scope of 
dcm2nii.

 

As a sidenote: what happens if you run 'dinifti' from the 'dicomnifiti' package 
on the files?

Not sure if it handles IMA files, but it should work fine for DICOMs

 

 

Michael
