Ravi,

I only use VTK to do 3D renders of Dicom Series, not for MPR..

I use Fo-Dicom for Axial, Coronal and Saggital and I've built my own method
to get the bitmaps for each slice view.

I'm not sure if you can convet slice images into bitmap with VTK (it would
be nice to know how though), I haven't tried that, maybe someone else in
this group did and can help.

Regards,

Matias.
