I would recommend just using dcmtk (www.dcmtk.org) to convert your
images. It will probably be faster than anything written in IDL.
In any case, it is part of the DICOM standard that an application
entity (DICOM node) should support uncompressed transmission of
images. Thus, theoretically you should be able to receive the file in
uncompressed form. This is the part where I rant about that DICOM is
not a file-format, it is a network protocol blah-blah-blah.

Thanks Robbie. I agree in principle with your suggestion of getting
the dicom files in uncompressed form, the trick here is teaching less-
tech savvy collaborators how to properly export their data and send it
to me. ;) I will look into dcmtk.
