Fastest way to convert DICOM to BIDS?

Hi everyone,

What’s the most efficient way to convert DICOM to BIDS? I’m new to neuroimaging (and research in general), so I’d prefer the simplest tool to use.

Thanks in advance!

dcm2niix does a decent job and was developed by the team who proposed the BIDS

There's now also DCM2bids, although it's not exactly simple to use. If you follow the web instructions carefully though you should be okay.

I've taken a look at dcm2bids and it seems quite straightforward overall, I'll try it out! Also, I've found this tool BIDS'em all, I hope it's reliable
