[MINC-users] Philips dcm2mnc failure

[Audette, Michel]

Hi everyone, 

I still get the occasional Philips DICOM failure... See below: 

icaw164201:/home/maudette/data/ENT_data # dcm2mnc Schlossmacher_Marita/* Schlossmacher_Marita_mnc
Checking file types...
File Schlossmacher_Marita/dicom/SCH_DEL_HUMAN_335.dcm appears to be DICOM (CD/Export).

(then nothing... quits without producing a mnc volume). I've ascertained that it works on some other Philips data from another scanner. Not sure why it quits here on the 2nd pass. 

Any suggestions for debugging this?
