If you're working with Philips scanners, you might want to 
reconstruct the scans and have them as raw files, ie *.PAR and *.REC 
files (instead of the tedious DICOM). This is an option of the 
scanner software. The *.PAR file serves as a header to the *.REC file 
(raw) which can easily be converted into minc, or any other file 
type. (for minc, use rawtominc etc etc), and the parameters 
(voxelsize, # of dynamics etc) should be checked! This works 
finereally works well!
Keep on the good work,
best,
Kuan
