Re: [amide-users] Problems importing DICOMS

[Ugarte, D. <du...@ep...>]

Dear Andy,

These are my results in importing the same DICOM files with AMIDE.

I had 1 study as a series of folders with a DICOMDIR file in the top folder (DICOMDIR columns)
	Out of 10 attempts with AMIDE 0.9.1 0 succeeded
	Out of 10 attempts with AMIDE 0.9.2 2 succeded

I extracted the biggest slice series (279 slices with 512x512 each) by importing the DICOMDIR in Ginkgo and exporting as an independent DICOM file series.
	Out of 10 attempts with AMIDE 0.9.1 0 succeeded
	Out of 10 attempts with AMIDE 0.9.2 6 succeeded

I always used the same DICOMDIR file, same series of.dcm exported from Ginkgo and machine/OS.

Usually AMIDE crashes at the very end of the first progress bar.

Following machine/OS details 

OS
Microsoft Windows XP Profesional Version 2002 Service Pack 3
 
HARDWARE
Intel (R) Core (TM)2 CPU
1.86 GHz 1.99GB RAM

Thanks for any hint.

PS:   1.- The strangest thing is that Ginkgo also uses DCMTK.
	2.-I hope this time it goes into the right thread

Hi Done,

Sorry for the slow response. Are you still having this issue? Which 
version of amide are you using and on what operating system?
