So indeed your image is 896x896, no doubt about it.

My cristal ball is telling me that you are dealing with SIEMENS MOSAIC
file. Is this correct ? If this is correct simply use the gdcmtar
(same location as gdcminfo you just used) to split your file into a
valid multiframe DICOM file.

http://apps.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/gdcm/index.php?title=Gdcmtar

It wil properly discard any black frame out of the final multiframe DICOM file.
