Wei,

You might need to turn on two options to the GDCM reader that is used to
load the DICOM images. This includes telling GDCM to load the private
tags and the maximum size of a tag to load.

typedef itk::GDCMImageIO ImageIOType;
ImageIOType::Pointer gdcmIO = ImageIOType::New();
gdcmIO->LoadPrivateTagsOn();
gdcmIO->SetMaxSizeLoadEntry( 65535 );
