Hi SUbbu,

	Are you looking for the number of slices that will be read ? I believe 
you can simply count the number of filenames in the output of the 
itk::GDCMSeriesFileNames

   typedef itk::GDCMSeriesFileNames                SeriesFileNames;
   SeriesFileNames::Pointer it = SeriesFileNames::New();
   it->SetInputDirectory( argv[1] );
   const ReaderType::FileNamesContainer & filenames = 
it->GetInputFileNames();
   unsigned int numberOfFilenames =  filenames.size();
   std::cout << numberOfFilenames << std::endl;
