The class that use gdcm to make a layer to VTK. \b gdcmviewer is basically only
just a wrapper around VTK/GDCM.

This tool is meant for testing integration of GDCM in VTK. You should see it as
a demo tool. It does compile with VTK ranging from 4.2 to 5.10, but only with
VTK 5.2 (or above) can play with the widgets (as described below).

\section simple_usage Simple usage

For now gdcmviewer should be started from a command line prompt. The next
argument should be the name of the DICOM file you wish to read. For instance:

\verbatim
$ gdcmviewer -V 012345.002.050.dcm
\endverbatim

gdcmviewer will try to read your file, and then print the vtk information
associated with this file. Basically what kind of image you are looking at.

\li ScalarType is the DICOM Real World Value type
\li Dimensions is the dimension of the image
\li Spacing is the spacing of the image
\li NumberOfScalarComponents should be 1 for grayscale & PALETTE COLOR and 3 for RGB, YBR data.
