Not sure if I got you right. A nifti image without a header is actually
not a nifti image but simply a binary blob of digits in a file ;-)

I'm not familiar with mipav, but if you are sure that the file you have
is really a nifti image besides the missing header you could create a
matching header. FSL comes with 'fslcreatehd', nifti_tool has a -make_im
option that does the same. Of course you can also use PyNIfTI to
generate a matching header, given you know the dimensions and datatype
of the array.

Cheers,

Michael
