The most information-per-page on DICOM I've gotten is through the
medical-image-faq
avaiable from rtfm.mit.edu, or other FAQ places. Most of the DICOM images
I've run accross are all the same: Little Endian short ints. The only
other thing you really need are the image dimensions (often fixed for a
given modality, e.g. 512x512 for CT); then you can just seek back
from the end of file the calcuated number of bytes (e.g. 2*512*512) and
readu.

If anyone has a DICOM reader, please post back to the group, as I could do
with one too. As an alternative, the location of the image format in a form
less than 6 inches thick that's readable by people with limited time who are
mere mortals would help!
