Hi Dr. Arfanakis,

I encountered the following error while running ARTS:

Chris Rorden's dcm2niiX version v1.0.20211006  GCC5.4.0 x86-64 (64-bit Linux)
Found 208 DICOM file(s)
Warning: Assuming mosaics saved in reverse order due to 'sSliceArray.ucImageNumb'

    stat_result = os.stat(filename)
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/output/T1/T1.nii.gz'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    raise FileNotFoundError(f"No such file or no access: '{filename}'")
FileNotFoundError: No such file or no access: '/output/T1/T1.nii.gz'

From looking at this output, I think the parantheses in the series description are causing the issue. If you could please patch ARTS to not use the series description when making the NIfTI file using dcm2niix, that would be great. 

Thanks,

Mike
