Just a guess from a file I was using...

You will have to figure out that yourself perhaps with a user option
to dynamically change the window and level. The values for these will
be different for every file. Also dicom header should have some
suggested values.
These are
0028|1050 Window Center
This is the same as Level.
0028|1051 Window Width
This is the same as Window
I do not read my files using vtk so I am not sure how to do that. I
use itk to read the images and the itk to vtk adaptor.
