Dear all,

I encountered an error while using dcm2niix (v1.0.20241211):
Error: DICOM incompatible with NIfTI slice orientation varies (issue 894, localizer?).

However, I was still able to obtain converted results for the task, T1, and fmap data. I searched online and found some suggestions to delete the localizer or scout files. Unfortunately, our scanning system was recently upgraded, and we can no longer identify subject IDs or series names from the raw data filenames (please refer to the screenshot for an example).

I’m wondering: Can I safely ignore this error and trust the results generated by dcm2niix? If not, what steps can I take to resolve this issue?

Thank you for your help!

Best,

Shanna
