Hi there,

I have added a page in GDCM wiki that present 'well known' issues
with DICOM image file:

http://gdcm.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/GDCM:Supported

Let me know if you think I am missing one. I am also looking for a
sample file from the well known GE PVRG bug.

Thanks
-Mathieu

Mathieu,

Excellent initiative, good to share our experiences so others don't
fall into the same trap.

I wouldn't mind to include some of the "minor bugs" instead of
limiting this set of images to the major issues that cause parsers to
trip up, for example, one of the issues I see often is invalid UID's
( leading zero's), which causes a lot of grief. In the mean time, I
appreciate yoru effort, because we can use some of these as
illustrations in our DICOM training classes.

Hi Herman,

Thanks for the comment, I started added the ones I knew from the top
of my head. I'll soon add the link to the culprit dataset.
Glad to hear GDCM is now used for your teaching class, pretty cool !
