[Insight-users] Re: Does Problem persists with Insight 1.2 ? ( Reading MetaImages)

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Shilpa,

What is your platform ?

It looks like the reader is not finding the entry

     ElementType = MET_USHORT

even though it seems to be defined in your file...

---

I would suspect that your header text file has
some sort of formating problem. It could be wrong
end of lines, or strange caracters inserted.

Can you open the header in a plain text editor ?
Does it look right ?

Could you please send us the header attached to
an email.


Thanks


    Luis
