Created attachment 602 minimal example of bug. ft_write_mri fails to correctly set the pixel dimensions for non 1x1x1 mri data, when it uses MRIwrite.m. MRIwrite is the default when supplied with a nii file output, so this would effect any user not explicitly requesting 'dataformat' = 'nifti_spm' I would suggest that at a minimum the default be switched to nifti_spm, and the bug be sent upstream to the whom ever maintains this code. attached is quick minimal example... best, Luke

Hi Luke, thanks for reporting the bug and the details. @Jan-Mathijs, I suspect you have most expertise in the MRI writing stuff, can I assign this to you? Robert

bash-4.1$ svn commit -m "bugfix - added correct pixel dimensions when writing to nifti" fileio/ft_write_mri.m test/test_bug2524.m Sending fileio/ft_write_mri.m Adding test/test_bug2524.m Transmitting file data .. Committed revision 9343. Note to Robert: the test function has a system call to an fsl-function. It works for me, but I don't know whether fsl is standard on the path.
