// .NAME vtkDICOMImageReader - Reads some DICOM images
// .SECTION Description
// DICOM (stands for Digital Imaging in COmmunications and Medicine)
// is a medical image file format widely used to exchange data, provided
// by various modalities.
// .SECTION Warnings
// This reader might eventually handle ACR-NEMA file (predecessor of the DICOM
// format for medical images).
// This reader does not handle encapsulated format, only plain raw file are
// handled. This reader also does not handle multi-frames DICOM datasets.
// .SECTION See Also
// vtkBMPReader vtkPNMReader vtkTIFFReader
