I recently had a cerebral MRI scan, and I’m trying to open and process the DICOM files. However, I encountered the following error:

99: PhoenixZIPReport [Scalar Volume]: Reference image in series does not contain geometry information. Please use caution.

That means it’s probably a text report or similar so it can’t be loaded in Slicer as a volume.

It’s hard to say, but there have been reports of [strange behavior with OneDrive](https://discourse.slicer.org/t/windows-unable-to-import-dicom-files-that-are-in-a-onedrive-backed-up-folder/36153). It definitely appears you are missing a lot of data.
