I am currently faced with the problem how to import MRI images from a
Siemens-vision scanner formatted according to the DICOM3 standard into a IDL
program for further processing. If anyone was faced with the same problem and
can provide me with information other than the basic DICOM documentation i
would be grateful.

P.S. by coincidence this request was initially posted under the identity of
Frank Besold. If you want to reply, please use:

I read the MR (Siemens Vision) images by a brut-force
method but it works fine.

Visions 1.5 T scanner images have a header of 6144 bytes.

point_lun,inunit,6144
read,data ; your 2D matrix typically 256x256


Note these are 16 bit/pixel images (where only 12 are
actually used)

To extract imaging parameters TI, TE, TR and FOV, I pass the
header through a parser (after converting each byte to
a character) and it seems to work fine.
