[Insight-users] gdcm 2.0 - single tag/key

[Rashindra Manniesing]

You're totally right, sorry for the confusion.

I did not find any issues with the default gdcm library, but I mistakenly
assumed that DicomImageIO2 was developed using gdcm 2.0. But I could have
known, because gdcm 2.0 is not included (yet) with itk.

So why do you refer to gdcm in the subject line of your post ? the
default DICOM reader is GDCM, why do you force the DICOM reading to
DICOMImageIO2. Did you find any issue using the default GDCM mechanism
?

thanks
