[Insight-users] ImageSeriesReader

[Jolinda Smith]

Hi Mathias,

Is the reason you don't want to write meta image headers for each volume
due to the number of files you'd have to create? Or some other reason? I
have a Windows program that batch converts DICOM files into metaimage
volumes that works well with large numbers of files. Currently it saves
the image data in a *.raw file, but I could add an option to save meta
image headers only. You can download it at
http://lcni.uoregon.edu/~jolinda/MRIConvert.

I'd also like to know more about the ImageSeriesReader. Any change it'll
handle the Siemens' mosaic format?

Jolinda
