[MINC-users] conversion to analyze problem

[Walker, Lindsay (NIH/NICHD) [V]]

I need to convert some minc images to analyze format.  I have been using
the mnc2nii tool from minc-1.5.1 with the -analyze option.

 

The images I converted have an indicator dot on the anatomical right of
the image.  When I run the minc to analyze conversion program, the
resulting analyze image shows the indicator dot on the anatomical left.
So the program appears to be flipping the labels for the left and right.

 

I have tried opening the analyze image with multiple pieces of software
to make sure it is not just a display issue (i.e. radiological versus
neurological coordinates).  The left and right labels appear to be
incorrect using fslview, medx and mipav.

 

Has anyone else encountered or noticed this problem?

 

Thank you.
