[vtkusers] loading a vtkImageData correctly

[Mark Wyszomierski]

Hi Mathieu,

First off - thanks for replying. I took a look at the
vtkDICOMImageReader class - it looks like it only reads a single image
- is there any class that handles reading an entire series and then
orders them 'correctly' based on IPP + IOP?

I read through the other links you posted but it will take me a few
more reads to understand the right way to figure out the ordering
using IPP + IOP,

Thanks,
Mark
