[Insight-users] Where to find the left, right, top, down information of DICOM header from DICOM image?

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Thanks David !

	As a side note there is a helper class (shamelessly copy from the very 
same source !), for you happy gdcm users:

	gdcm::Orientation

http://www.creatis.insa-lyon.fr/Public/Gdcm/html.developper/gdcmOrientation_8h.html

	Look for:

std::string Orientation::GetSingleOrientation ( float *iop)

HTH,
Mathieu
