after looping through folders

Hi there! So, this is what I have so far:

cd(fileparts(which(mfilename)));

start_path = cd topLevelFolder = uigetdir(start_path)

%topLevelFolder = 'C:\Users\RuiTiclo\Desktop\controlosprimeira';

allSubFolders = genpath(topLevelFolder)

disp('Patients');

remain = allSubFolders;

listOfFolderNames = {};

while true

[singleSubFolder, remain] = strtok(remain, ';');

    if isempty(singleSubFolder)

        break; 

    end

disp(sprintf('%s', singleSubFolder))

listOfFolderNames = [listOfFolderNames singleSubFolder];

end

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

ans:

C:\Users\UserMe\Desktop\controls

C:\Users\UserMe\Desktop\controls\patient1

C:\Users\UserMe\Desktop\controls\patient2

C:\Users\UserMe\Desktop\controls\patient3

C:\Users\UserMe\Desktop\controls\patient4

C:\Users\UserMe\Desktop\controls\patient5

C:\Users\UserMe\Desktop\controls\patient6

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

The code above gives me acess to each of the folders inside my main folder. All the subfolders contain the same structure of sub organization, with multitple sub-sub folders and sub-sub-subfolders inside(they are results of MRI post processed scans). So, once I am inside a specific patient folder, how do I specify a path, for instance:

C:\Users\UserME\Desktop\controls\patientNumberX\results\DTI\run1 and then find a file caled( for instance): "dti_adc.nii" ??

IN SUMMARY, I already know how to loop through all the subfolders( patients). Now, for each subfolder, I want to specify a path and then find a file.

Help me solve this issue pls Regards

any thoughts ?

Can't you just use strcat and specify the whole path that you want to reach (from each of the files)

I want to make it automatic, so that theuser only specifies the main folder ( the one with all patientes subfolder).

You're not getting the subfolder names. Try running my attached demo to see how I do it.
