[Insight-users] reading a dicom series, problems

[Ruby Shamir]

Hi All,

We tried to read Dicom series with ImageSeriesReader and used
itkDICOMImageSeriesTest.cxx and DicomSeriesReadImageWrite.cxx as
examples.

However when trying to read the data we counteres the next exception:
"////////////////////////////////////////////////
Error reading the series 

itk::ExceptionObject (0012E4C8)
Location: "Unknown" 
File: f:\itk\code\code\io\itkimagefilereader.txx
Line: 174
Description: Invalid output object type
/////////////////////////////////////////////////"

We did not succeed to read a single image too.

In addition when tried to run itkIOTests project with option = 6 or 5
It returned with unknown exception.

What can we do?

Thank you,

     Ruby

The code is:

typedef unsigned char                       PixelType;
const unsigned int Dimension = 3;
typedef itk::Image< PixelType, Dimension >  ImageType3D;
typedef itk::ImageSeriesReader< ImageType3D > ReaderTypeSeries;

itk::DICOMImageIO2::Pointer ioDicom2d = itk::DICOMImageIO2::New();

	ReaderTypeSeries::Pointer dicomSeriesReader =
ReaderTypeSeries::New();
	dicomSeriesReader->SetImageIO(ioDicom2d);

	dicomSeriesReader->SetFileNames(fileNamesVector);
	
	try
    { 
      dicomSeriesReader->Update();
    }
		catch( itk::ExceptionObject & excp )
    {
	  fstream readerErr;
	  readerErr.open("readerErr.txt",ios::out);

      readerErr << "Error reading the series " << endl;
      readerErr << excp << endl;

      readerErr.close();
    }

while "fileNamesVector" is a vector of strings updated in MFC file
chooser window.
