Hello,
I have a patient with a perfusion MRI which counts 925 slides originally in their electronic file. When exporting this file, our exporting software creates a folder with 37 files (925/25) and loading it into 3DSlicer through the Add DICOM Data module, it loads and is visible as a 3D image with 37 Slices
Now, the actual file format of these 37 files is a mystery to me as they are just named “file” and not a specific extension. Only through the Add DICOM Data module will they load properly.
A part of me thinks that the 4D data must somehow be embedded in these 37 files since the original is 925 slices and our exporter gives us 925/25 = 37 files. I am wondering if you have any leads for me to find out if this is actually the case, or if my search is futile because the file is just exporting erroneously.
I have tried to save this file as a .nii and loading it in through MultiVolumeImporter but this loads it as a 1 frame MultiVolume. This to me indicates that there is no timedata, but I might also be doing that myself by saving it as a .nii?
My ultimate goal is to use this scan to create an rCBV map of the perfusion scan, using the MultiVolumeImporter and DSCMRI-Analysis modules, and I haven’t been able to yet.
I’m super thankful for any unput or leads on where to go from here.
