Hi everybody,

 

I would like to read a sequence of Dicom images in a volume. Unfortunately
the images' names do not correspond to their order in space. For this I
would like to read from each image header the "Image number", "Patient
position", "slice thickness".and "pixel spacing". Does anybody have an
example of how to read these fields from a dicom header? Thank you very
much.

 

George
