[MINC-users] getting patient data out of minc volumes

[Leila Baghdadi]

Hi Michel,

I have written MINC2 support for ITK a few years ago. This code is now
part of review directory of ITK. you can use it to read and write
MINC2.0 files (no minc1.0 support) , however there is no code for
reading patient information.

so what you can do is add that code (minc function calls for retrieving
patient information) to the MINC2.0 itk factory. So all the information
can be read along with image information.

Hope this helps

Leila
