[Insight-users] How to read a stack of DICOM images?

[Stephen R. Aylward]

One nice option is
MRIConvert
It is a tool developed at the Lewis Center for Neuroimaging at the 
University of Oregon. It reads DICOM series and convert them to other 
image file formats. It supports MetaImage on writing. Binaries are 
available at
