[Insight-users] ImageSeriesReader

[Jolinda Smith]

Okay, it's finally done. You can now use MRIConvert to create metaimage
headers without raw files, and can save any known DICOM tag to the
header. Check it out: http://lcni.uoregon.edu/~jolinda/MRIConvert.html.
Let me know if you have any trouble -- the new version hasn't exactly
been thoroughly tested. BTW, if there's a tag you need to save that
isn't in the list, just add it to the "generic.txt" file. It's not a
complete list of DICOM tags, just the most common ones for MR images.
