[MINC-users] dicom/minc/analyze conversions

[Andrew Janke]

here is how I would attack it...

  1: remove direction cosines from MINC anatomical files
        (ANALYZE doesn't store them)
      --or--
      add direction cosines from anatomical files to labels

  2: reorder MINC files to have standard dimension ordering

  3: Be sure to use nii2mnc over ana2mnc
