I suggest reading the IDL help on "DICOM, conformance summary".
Specifically the "Encapsulated Transfer Syntaxes Not Supported" section.

You will find that the Siemens files are in a format that IDL doesn't
support. I would suggest trying to export the images in a supported
transfer syntax (I don't know if Osiris can do this).
