[Insight-users] Reading DICOM fields

[Jenny Simpson]

Is there a way to read an arbitrary DICOM field using the Itk IO library?
Specifically, I need to be able to read the description fields from a set
of DICOM files.  The reason I need to do this is that there are several
volumes within a set of DICOM files and yet the entire set of files is
showing up as one series.  In order to separate the files into the
different volumes, I need to differentiate them by their description
fields.

Thanks,
