I am trying to read a cbct scan dicom file with the following multi-frame structure.

The PlaneOrientationSequence is missing but the ImageOrientationPatient property is there. Is there a way to support the conversion of this dicom structure?

Dear Iason,

We should be able to support this quite easily, however there is one condition.
Due to the fact that we (icometrix) include dicom2nifti in our clinical products we need proper testing etc.
If you would be able to share one example of this data with me (through email or so) this can be used to create a test dataset (fully anonimized, including random pixel data).
Can also be a publicly available dataset.

Kind regards,
Arne

Dear Iason,

I just requested access to the file. Once I receive it I can take a further look and push a small release to fix this issue.

Kind regards,
Arne

Hi Arne,

Could you please request access for this one? Sorry for the inconvenience

I think you should have access now. Thank you very much for your interest!

abrys commented

The download worked. I will try to push out a release with a fix soon.

abrys commented

The sirona "multiframe" dicom file seems to take a quite liberal interpretation for multiframe dicom headers.
I was however able to make it work.

abrys commented

Fix will be available starting release 2.4.7 (hopefully still today)

abrys commented

Release pushed out to pypi and conda

Iason,

Thanks for sharing the data and making this changes possible.

Kind regards,
Arne

Hi Arne,

You are amazing! Thank you for the super quick update!

All the best,
Iason
