Hi Sam,

An error message should be printed to your terminal when the exception is thrown, but from a glance the following line looks fishy:

reader->SetFileName( "cFileName );

Try replacing it with:
reader->SetFileName( "image0075.dcm");

  Dear Robert: 

   

  I very appreciate your prompt response, and I ask for your favor for another problem I encountered in reading DICOM image.

   

  I followed your instructions in getting image sizes. Because all sizes of the image displayed 0, I checked the code and found that an exception happened in reading the DICOM image. I copied exactly the code in the ItkApp file DicomImageReadWrite.cxx as follows and tested it using the testing DICOM image image0075.dcm in the ItkApp. 

   

  typedef signed short InputPixelType;

        const unsigned int   InputDimension = 2;

                 

        typedef itk::Image< InputPixelType, InputDimension > InputImageType;

        typedef itk::ImageFileReader< InputImageType > ReaderType;

        typedef InputImageType::SizeType         SizeType;

   

        ReaderType::Pointer reader = ReaderType::New();

        reader->SetFileName( "cFileName );

        

        typedef itk::GDCMImageIO           ImageIOType;

        ImageIOType::Pointer gdcmImageIO = ImageIOType::New();

        reader->SetImageIO( gdcmImageIO );

   

        try

      {

              reader->Update();

      }

        catch (itk::ExceptionObject & e)

      {

              std::cerr << "exception in file reader " << std::endl;

              std::cerr << e << std::endl;

  //          return EXIT_FAILURE;

      }

        InputImageType::Pointer image = reader->GetOutput() ;

        

        unsigned long lwidth = image->GetLargestPossibleRegion().GetSize()[0] ;

        unsigned long lheight = image->GetLargestPossibleRegion().GetSize()[1] ;

   

  The information about the exception is: itk::ImageFileReaderException at 0x0122f17c.

   

  Would you please tell me what is wrong in the code and how to fix it? I very appreciate your kind help.

   

  Best regards,

  Sam

  The image base class has the functionality to return image regions as well as the size of these regions. To retrieve the size of the image, you can use the following:

   

  itkSize<imageDimension> imageSize = image->GetLargestPossibleRegion().GetSize()

   

  or you can just get each dimension individually, i.e., for 3D: 

   

  unsigned long x = image->GetLargestPossibleRegion().GetSize()[0]

  unsigned long y = image->GetLargestPossibleRegion().GetSize()[1]

  unsigned long z = image->GetLargestPossibleRegion().GetSize()[2]

    Can anybody tell me how to get the image size, including the height and the width of an image? Your kind help is greatly appreciated.

     

    Sam
