DICOM series reader

MATLAB toolbox for reading one or more DICOM series from a directory

This small MATLAB toolbox provides the functionality of reading one or more DICOM series from a directory containing many DICOM files. The DICOM files are automatically matched together into partitions (each usually a 2D or 3D volume). Using these partitions the DICOM series can be conveniently read into MATLAB. The code handles both classic and enhanced DICOM files and provides utilities for reading them and accessing DICOM tags in a consistent manner.

Important note: We know from experience that there is a lot of variation in DICOM files and the code may not deal with all DICOM files properly. We heavily rely on this code in our research and will improve the code as necessary to deal with new data. If you find bugs or errors with your DICOM files, you can help improve this toolbox by looking for a fix, or by letting me know!

Important note 2: This code is meant solely for research purposes. Please do NOT rely on it for any clinical implementations! I do not accept any responsibility for damage caused by the use of this software.
