Convert Siemens to DICOM - stand-alone module #18

There is a module there that converts older SIEMENS files to DICOM - I wanted to see if that was available as a stand-alone module.
I am working with some older SIEMENS files in .ima format and wanted to put them into DICOM - this is so that I can then pass them into another tools like dcm2niix and get them into BIDS format with the correct associated .json files.

I think I would need the siemens_header_defs.h siemens_header_table.h siemens_to_dicom.c files - I am trying to compile myself but wanted to see what you had.

ITK is a place to check

Hi - thanks for getting back to me!
ITK seems like a good option but I don't think it's equipped to handle these older SIEMENS .ima files from my testing and questions I've asked.

I want to try installing this older minc package but before I go further -
I wanted to ask if it is equipped to handler MagnetomVision files?
This is a older SIEMENS format (which I think this package can move to DICOM but I'm unsure).
I want to move these files to DICOM - and them run dcm2niix on them so I can get the header information in a.json file that is in BIDS format.

The only MagnetomVision module I can find is https://github.com/BIC-MNI/minc-tools/blob/e3825986359ecd75d82aa88ff2015d36e234e55d/conversion/mri_to_minc/siemens_magnetom_vision_to_minc.pl#L4
Which I think only moves them into minc format - not DICOM

That is correct, whatever converters we have, they all go to MINC.
