[MINC-users] minc2dicom ?

[Alex ZIJDENBOS]

You may also want to take a look at MIPAV (http://mipav.cit.nih.gov/)
which is able to read MINC and write DICOM. Relating to a specific
project, we have recently been helping them to improve their MINC to
DICOM conversion, but I am not sure if/when those modifications will
make it into an official release. As it is it may work for you - YMMV.
