NAME

PDL::IO::Dicom - a module for reading DICOM images.

DESCRIPTION

The PDL::IO::Dicom module enables reading 16-bit gray level Dicom images into As Dicom is an extremely complex format, this module can unfortunately not handle all different image types included in the standard. One common format that is currently not supported is the Papyrus format.

USAGE

    use PDL;
    use PDL::IO::Dicom;

    $img = rdcm("image.dcm");
