Hi.
Would it be possible to have support for DWI to get both bvec and bval, in addition to the nifti?
AFAIK:
bvals can be found under PVM_DwEffBvals in the corresponding method file for the scan.
bvec are found under PVM_DwGradRead, PVM_DwGrandPhase, and PVM_DwGradeSlice in the same file.

Feel free to add this feature, and issue a pull request if you want to share it with others. You may also want to explore bruker2nifti which will extract a DwGradVec.txt file for you. If you are hoping to create FSL format bval and bvec files, you will want to carefully validate your solution.
Be aware that the BMatrix is not sufficient to determine the BVector (e.g. the BVecs [-1 0 0] and [1 0 0] generate the same BMatrix).
The FSL format bvecs are described with respect to the image plane and not the scanner bore. FSL assumes a radiological convention as noted here.
In my experience, the orientations of Bruker images can be unexpected. I think some individuals put the animals in prone, while others put them in supine, and rodent's anterior-posterior direction is different than a primate's when in either of these positions. For a generalized approach you will want to explore this carefully. At least with DICOM there are tags for quadruped as well as prone/supine, but even those assume the operator has set them correctly.
