import DICOM images from Siemens Avanto equipment (MR Urography V5.0 SMP Plug-in)...

[Gonzalo Rojas Costa]

Hi:

 I want to process some urography MR images using "MR Urography V5.0
SMP Plug-in"... The MR images are from a Siemens Avanto scanner, and
each slice is in different DICOM file, but it seems that the MR
urography plugin needs all slices in one DICOM file... How can I
convert it to that format ?...

  Sincerely,


Gonzalo Rojas Costa

The documentation says that you can either use a stack or a single image.

http://www.univ-rouen.fr/med/MRurography/Files/URO%20MR%20-%20Users'%20Guide%20Version%205.0SMP.pdf

In order to create a stack, you should open your DICOM images in imageJ, run Images to Stack, and then run your plugin. Images to Stack can be found in the imageJ menu Images->Stack->Images to Stack

Hi:

 I want to process some urography MR images using "MR Urography V5.0
SMP Plug-in"... The MR images are from a Siemens Avanto scanner...
Using "Open Image/Stack" button ("MRU" window), when I select the
first image, I got the message "No DICOM images were found"... If I
use the KidneyVolume plugin with the same images, it reads the DICOM
files without any problem... Why ?...

Unfortunately, if the answer to your question is not in the documentation (http://www.univ-rouen.fr/med/MRurography/Files/URO%20MR%20-%20Users'%20Guide%20Version%205.0SMP.pdf), I can't help you because the creators of the plugin do not provide the source code.

In other words, the reason you are having a problem is probably because there is an error in the plugin, but I don't know how the plugin works.

You could send the creators of the plugin an e-mail:

Good luck!
