SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

BIDS Organizer automatically converts raw or semi-organized neuroimaging data (DICOM, NIfTI, EEG, etc.) into a standardized BIDS-compliant dataset, reducing manual reformatting and naming errors.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Data type detection and DICOM → NIfTI conversion with proper BIDS naming.
  • Plan generation with subject/session labeling and a confirmation step.
  • Delegation to base tools (dcm2nii, mne-eeg-tool, claw-shell) and BIDS validation.

Quick Start

Provide a dataset input directory containing raw neuroimaging data and run the BIDS organizer to generate a compliant dataset.

Frequently Asked Questions about bids-organizer

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert raw DICOM files to a BIDS-compliant neuroimaging dataset?

To convert raw DICOM files to a BIDS-compliant neuroimaging dataset, the tool detects input data, generates a step-by-step plan with proper naming, delegates conversion to dcm2nii, and runs BIDS validation.

What is the best way to organize EEG and NIfTI data into BIDS automatically?

The best way to organize EEG and NIfTI data into BIDS automatically is by generating a subject and session labeling plan, confirming the execution steps, and delegating tasks to mne-eeg-tool before validating.

Does the BIDS organization process require manual confirmation before converting DICOM?

Yes, the BIDS organization process requires explicit user confirmation before converting DICOM, presenting a concrete execution plan with estimated effort and risks to ensure safe data transformation.

Can I validate my neuroimaging data structure immediately after DICOM to BIDS conversion?

Yes, you can validate your neuroimaging data structure immediately after DICOM to BIDS conversion, because the workflow automatically runs BIDS validation upon completion of the delegated conversion tasks.

Why do I need a generated plan before executing BIDS data organization?

You need a generated plan before executing BIDS data organization to review subject and session labeling, assess estimated effort and risks, and prevent manual reformatting or naming errors in neuroimaging data.

Will dcm2nii and mne-eeg-tool work together in a single neuroimaging BIDS conversion workflow?

Yes, dcm2nii and mne-eeg-tool work together in a single neuroimaging BIDS conversion workflow, where the organizer detects specific data types and delegates each format to its appropriate base tool for processing.
