[Insight-users] about itk and python

[Mario Ceresa]

Hola José!
I usually read a dicom serie from a directory this way with (the wonderful)
WrapITK:

def load_serie(serie_dir,image_type):
        import itk
        reader = itk.ImageSeriesReader[image_type].New()
        gdcmIO = itk.GDCMImageIO.New()
        reader.SetImageIO(gdcmIO.GetPointer())
        namesGenerator = itk.GDCMSeriesFileNames.New()
        namesGenerator.SetDirectory(serie_dir)
        reader.SetFileNames(namesGenerator.GetInputFileNames())
        return itk.output(reader)

As far as I know you have to know the image_type (SS3,US3...) BEFORE reading
the files, but maybe someone else knows a better way! (in this case plz let
me know too :) )
