-### Images present in gdcmData but whose peculiarity is not documented
+### LIBIDO format images
+### The libido format is an "extension" of the old ACRNEMA version 1.1
+### format. It was "designed" to embed images of float or double type
+### (in the sense of the C language) within the ACRNEMA format.
+### LIBIDO images are typically used as a temporary container for
+### observing the internal stages of a computation image pipeline
+### (i.e. some kind of file watch point), with a shallow compatibility 
+### with the ACRNEMA format. By shallow compatibility we mean that
+### a classical DICOM viewer has no knowledge of the LIBIDO format 
+### and hence cannot display it (how to display a "double" image anyhow).
+###    Very few tags are available (e.g. no "Manufacturer" related
+### info, no medical information).
+### LIBIDO images can be recognized by their "Recognition Code"
