[Insight-users] Reading DICOM using GDCM reader

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Smriti,

	You should also read the code from itkGDCMImageIO.cxx. You'll see that 
we include gdcm header this way:

   #include "gdcm/src/gdcmFile.h"

	And finally gdcmHeader.h was used in gdcm 0.6 (=ITK 2.x) but not in 
gdcm 1.0 anymore (=ITK CVS).
