Hi,

I am a complete newbie to gdcm. I want to use gdcm to extract some 
header data and a single image from dicom files.

I thought it would be a good start to try out the HelloWorld example 
from the gdcm documentation. My problem is that I don't know what 
libraries or Dlls to include from the gdcm installation. I installed the 
precompiled version for windows. Can anyone point me to the right 
direction, please?

thanks in advance

Stefan

See FAQ: [Where are the GDCM mailing lists ? ]
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/gdcm/index.php?title=3DGeneral_questi=
ons#Where_are_the_GDCM_mailing_lists_.3F

If you read this particular FAQ entry, you'll be suggested to not
raise GDCM specific question on the dicom newsgroup itself, thanks.
In this case you'll have no other option than to subscribe to the
mailing list.

Anyway, let say you are using C#, have a look at this example:

http://gdcm.sourceforge.net/html/DecompressJPEGFile.cs-example.html

It can be trivially converted to C++, Java or Python if you don't use
C#.
