Operating system: Windows 7
Slicer version: 4.8.1
Expected behavior: DICOM DWI Data loads normally
Actual behavior: DICOM DWI Data appears garbled

I am using the DICOM Browser to import and load MRI data. The imported DICOM folder holds data of a variety of scan types (T2 weighted, T1 weighted, diffusion weighted, etc.). When attempting to load the diffusion weighted (DWI) scan from this folder, I get the following pop-up:

First of all, how do I examine the data in advanced mode? I have looked through the Application Settings and haven’t been able to find anything on how to do this.

After I click OK, the Python Interactor gives the following error message:

The image that does appear is very garbled and does not match what I see when I pull the data up in a DICOM viewer. I also tried to open the corresponding .nrrd file, which was unsuccessful (it stalled on each try, both before and after restarting Slicer).

Any ideas on how I might load this DWI scan effectively? Thank you!
