[vtkusers] Re: *dc to vtk *.raw !!!!Error!!!Help!!!

[Joshua Thomas]

Dear All,

I am using vtk with tcl. I am sorry i still cannot figure it out.

Is the file extension  *.dc represent *.dcm?

My data file is with the extension  *.dc  and i convert it into  *.raw

but the file extension is again with  im001.dc.raw (two extension) 

I used dicom2.exe from the below website

http://www.barre.nom.fr/medical/dicom2/index.html#TOC

I used this command 

c:\temp>dicom2  --to=rawdir -r * 

But i still have two extensions (im001.dc.raw), then i refer back to
the below website with the help of vtk users

 http://dicom.online.fr/

There i found out the export wizard has *.dcm, *.png etc IT DOESNOT
have *.raw file extension.

If i convert back the images into vtk raw format then i can use
vtkvolume16Reader to map the image.

I tried with the  vtk42\examples\medical\tcl\medical1.tcl ( i changed
the file path)

i cannot see the output image, just only the outline.

Really Really need your help..............

Regards
JJ
