I try to load a (large)  NIfTI file (DMRI from Human Connectome Project, about 1 GB) with NiBabel.

import nibabel as nib

img = nib.load("dmri.nii.gz")

data = img.get_data()

The program crashes during "img.get_data()" with an "MemoryError" (having 4 GB of RAM in my machine).

Any suggestions?

Best regards,

AMIRA
