[Castor-users] Question about data converter for aquisition data from Siemens mMR

Hi,


As Maxime said there are several converters available for a small number 
of systems, that you can find here: http://castor-project.org/converters 
. If your system isn't here, you would have to make the converter yourself.


However there is a mMR converter in development which is not validated 
yet (conversion of list-mode data in particular still requires some 
testing). I could send the binary to you if you wish. However, as the 
other Siemens to CASToR converter tools, it relies on interfile datasets 
generated with e7tools from the raw data. So the raw data from the 
scanner cannot be used directly with this converter, you must have a 
developmental software agreement with Siemens to get access to the 
e7tools and be able to convert raw data from mMR, then use the 
converters along with CASToR.


Best,
Thibaut
