The function reads a DICOM file.
Object with the following list entries:
header |
header information as raw data |
ttt |
image data if requested. raw vector (numeric size 4) containing the four dimensional data cube (the first three dimensions are voxel dimensions, the fourth dimension denotes the time). |
format |
data source. string "DICOM" |
delta |
voxel size in mm |
series |
series identifier |
image |
image number within series |
dim |

Since the DICOM standard is rather complicated, there may be cases where this function cannot read a DICOM file. Known issue: it cannot read header with implicit VR. Return value may change in future version!
