> I'm using ImageSeriesReader to convert a set of DIOCM slice into a 3D DICOM image and it works. The question is, can one directly get one slice directly, i.e. reader->somefunction(slice), from the reader? or do I have to cut the 3D image to do that?

the reader accepts

  std::vector<std::string>

so you do

   reader->SetFileNames(files);

where

   files

is the file names of the slices you are interested in


you could also output a mha file from

    $ITK_SOURCE/Examples/IO/DicomSeriesReadImageWrite

and use the "slice" functionality in paraview.
