[ITK] [ITK-users] Misunderstood ResampleDICOM example behaviour

[Matt McCormick]

Guillaume make some good points.  DICOM is difficult partially because of
the variations in how metadata is stored per modality and vendor.

A couple of other tips:

- Make sure to use v4.5.2 or Git master to have the fix for writing GDCM
z-spacing.
- Watch out for variations in the rescale slope/intercept tags per slice
that are common with PET.
- Calling the static method gdcm::SetForcePixelSpacing( true ) [1] may help
with some non-standard files.

HTH,
Matt
