dicom support

[Andy Buckle]

I have been working on some oct files using gdcm*. I have what might
charitably be called a proof of concept for something like matlab's
dicominfo**. If possible, I would like to make my octave dicominfo
compatible with matlab's. I do not currently have access to a matlab
license. Is there anyone out there who would be willing to collaborate
on this?

For example, gdcm's dicom dictionary gives a tag name of "Number of
Frames". I strip non-alphabet chars to yield a struct member variable
name of "NumberofFrames". I don't know if matlab would make that
"NumberOfFrames".

Also, there are these odd dicom variable representations that store
numbers in strings. I don't know if matlab gives them as char arrays,
or parses them to arrays of doubles.

So, I would like to share some dicom files with someone who could send
me details of the structs that matlab's dicominfo spits out. Then I
could try and make my implementation produce the same.
