Conversion to DICOM is somethat that I myself never plan to support or
even implement.  The main reason being that there is (paradoxically)
no DICOM standard for the sort of thing we do.

However my suggestion would be something like this:

   for i in `seq 0 <nslices>`;
   do

      mincpik infile.mnc tmp.png;
      dicom2 tmp.png  out_$i.dcm;
   done

I dont have the syntax for dicom2 right but you can get it from here:
