[Insight-users] problems reading meta headers???

[Fernando Rannou]

Hello,

I'm having problems to manipulate meta images.
Here is the header file:

ObjectType = Image
NDims = 3
BinaryData = True
BinaryDataByteOrderMSB = False
ElementSpacing = 0.4 0.4 1.22
DimSize = 128 128 63
ElementType = MET_FLOAT
ElementDataFile = rp_pet.mhd.raw


and here's my program that prints out the image spacing:
#include "itkImage.h"
#include "itkImageFileReader.h"

int main( int argc, char **argv )
{
  const   unsigned int  Dimension = 3;
  typedef float         PixelType;
 
  typedef itk::Image< PixelType, Dimension > ImageType;
  typedef itk::ImageFileReader< ImageType  > ImageReaderType;

  ImageReaderType::Pointer imageReader = ImageReaderType::New();

  imageReader->SetFileName( argv[1] );

  ImageType::Pointer myimage = imageReader->GetOutput();
  const double * spacing = myimage->GetSpacing();
  std::cout << "Spacing: " << spacing[0] << ", " << spacing[1] << ", " 
<< spacing[2] << std::endl;
  return 0;
}


When I run the program I get:

Spacing: 1, 1, 1
----

This is probably something very obvious but I don't see it right now.
Thanks

Fernando
