Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Add part of pathname/subfolder name to beginning of filename Post 302976804 by RudiC on Wednesday 6th of July 2016 11:35:24 AM

If I recall correctly, Ubuntu 12.4 and bash were mentioned in an earlier thread... so, try
Code:
find home/user/Documents/DWI -type f -name "dti*nii.gz" | while read FN; do TMP=${FN#*/*/*/*/}; TMP=${TMP%%/*}; echo mv $FN ${FN/dti/${TMP}_dti}; done 
mv home/user/Documents/DWI/111180-100/3t_2016-01-07_21-42/003_DTI_siemens_TClessdistort/dtifit_FA.nii.gz home/user/Documents/DWI/111180-100/3t_2016-01-07_21-42/003_DTI_siemens_TClessdistort/111180-100_dtifit_FA.nii.gz
mv home/user/Documents/DWI/111445-100/3t_2016-01-07_21-42/003_DTI_siemens_TClessdistort/dtifit_FA.nii.gz home/user/Documents/DWI/111445-100/3t_2016-01-07_21-42/003_DTI_siemens_TClessdistort/111445-100_dtifit_FA.nii.gz

The echo is in there to stay on the safe side; remove it when you're happy with the "proposed" result.
Am I right in guessing the /V1etc in your sample results is an undesired artefact?

SYNOPSIS

       vbim <flag> ...

DESCRIPTION

       vbim is part of the VoxBo suite of tools for brain image analysis.

       vbim is a multi-purpose program that applies various simple manipulations to 3D and 4D images.

OPTIONS

       vbim performs a set of operations, specified by option flags, in sequence.  To get a complete list of available flags, run the program with
       no arguments.

EXAMPLES

       To get very basic info about a file:

	      vbim foo.nii -info

       To get more detailed information about the data within a mask:

	      vbim foo.nii -regioninfo mask.nii

       To apply a mask to a 3D image and write out the result:

	      vbim image.nii -mask mask.nii -write maskedimage.nii

       To mask a 4D image:

	      vbim image.nii -mask mask.nii -write4D maskedimage.nii

       To average a bunch of 3D volumes:

	      vbim *.nii.gz -average -write mean.nii.gz

       To create a lesion count map from a set of lesion masks:

	      vbim *.nii -count -write count.nii.gz

       To create a 4D volume (20x20x20 voxels, 32-bit int, 10 time points) of random data with a mean of 100 and sd of 10:

	      vbim -newvol 20 20 20 10 int32 -addnoise 100 10 -write3d myvol.nii
