%GE_convertADW
%
% Version 3.1
%
% Converts a series of GE slices acquired on the Advanced
% Development Workstation into Analyze format for SPM.
% inDir is the name of the first directory containing the
%      series, e.g. 003
% outStem is the stem used for naming the Analyze files
% starttime is the time point number to start
% nvols is the number of volumes (time points) to convert
%
% status = 1, error
% status = 0, all is well
%
% eg GE_convert('DATA/00023/003','converted',5,27)
% Will convert 27 time points starting at the 5th time point
% named converted_i0001.img, converted_i0002.img, ...,
% converted_i0027.img and their associated header and mat files.
%
% Assumes the data is stored as 003/I.001 through 003/I.999 and
% then 023/I.001 through 023/I.999, etc.
% Remember to skip the template images ie 1 time point for the
% first run.  You don't need to do this for subsequent runs.
%
% Modified to use spm write functions
% Modified to use spm_write_plane instead of spm_write_vol
