Hi Jesse,

Have you tried importing the data with MITK? Since you used other software it 
is difficult for us to help you identify the source of the differences. If you 
doubt the correctness I would suggest comparing them with the information in 
the dicom header.

Best Regards,
Thomas

Onderwerp: [mitk-users] Fwd: DWI Gradient Values

Dear MITK Users,


I am converting DICOM data from a Siemens Espree 1.5T machine for Fiber 
Tracking. Looking at the converted files I see that there is a difference 
between the raw gradients and the gradients once converted. I am interested to 
know where these differences come from. What pre processing steps are performed 
on the data during conversion?

I have included the gradient values I have obtained from various software here 
as reference. I have also summarized my findings below.

Your help in helping me to identify the source of these differences is much 
appreciated!!

Best Regards
Jesse
