[vtkusers] How get DICOM image intensity?

[Jim Peterson]

Personally, I am sorry, but there is not enough information in your 
description of the problem to be sure you have a legitimate complaint. 
does your dicom data consist of only one point? how are you certain you 
have selected the exact same location?

in my mainframe programming life we have a saying:

"when expected results do not match observed results, check the library 
concatenation"

.... in my opinion, chances are you are looking at different points.

sorry, Hoping to be helpful not critical.
