RE: Siemens XA images exported as classic dicom

Your question is underspecified, as I have no idea what type of data it is in terms of number of participants, sessions or modalities. Here are two thoughts:


1. I often use the dcm2niix "rename" function to renaming DICOMs and place them into hierarchical folders, the command I use is


dcm2niix -r y /path/to/dicoms


which is the same as

dcm2niix -r y -f %t/%s_%p/%4r_%o.dcm /path/to/dicoms

So the new output name is dased on the series date/time, series number, protocol name, instance number and media UID:

2. If your DICOMs are well behaved (e.g. reproin), you could try to see if BIDSvue can currate for you
