[ITK] [ITK-users] How can I remove overlapped MRI DICOM images from the data?

[Dženan Zukić]

Your solution will depend on what positions are assigned to images arising
from different coils. I suspect you will have to manipulate position and
orientation. Take a look at this example and links therein:
