+ <LI> An other version, called gdcm2 exists, an is a complete ground up rewrite of GDCM 1.x.

+ http://gdcm.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/GDCM_Release_2.0
+ </a>)</br>
+ If you are a new DICOM user, better use gdcm2, because its structure will allow much more features than gdcm1.x does (it's almost exclusively 'image oriented')
