Dear Ross,

I have a Signa LX Echospeed Plus; asp2 here and basically the same
interests. We are using various software for processing spectra from the
manufacturer provided (Sage), to MRUI, LCModel and Felix2000.
>Unless prompted, the Signa only saves the processed image data files.

>But, what does GE do to the data during processing??!!
Images can be saved as raw data (P-files) and reconstructed off-line, or
extracted from the image database using get5 or list-select tool
(depending on your systemversion). Images can be transported into Dicom
or tiff files. The reconstructed images are absolute value images, all
raw data are thrown away to save space. Or are you refering to chemical
shift images?
>Has anyone been down this path before??
Well, sort of. Maybe we should correspond on the details, unless you
already received a useful response from someone else (then of course I
would be interested in tapping this conversation!).
Just my 2 oere.
73, Peter
