Excellent. Thanks for sharing your efforts!

To write to an image series in general, there is an itk::ImageSeriesWriter.

Writing DICOMs (correctly) is currently a very tricky endeavour. There
are currently some experiments underway to make this easier. However,
until that time, it is recommended to use another format, like
MetaImage, for writing files.

These questions are welcome, but the VTK mailing list is a better
place to discuss these issues.
