I'm experiencing very slow DCOM series load as well. Hope someone will offer a good suggestion?<BR>
<BR>
Do you use a seperate thread for each series and try to load the serieses in parallel?<BR><BR>Xiaofeng<BR><BR><BR><BR> <BR>> Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2009 16:22:53 -0500<BR>> From: jmrbcu@gmail.com<BR>> To: vtkusers@vtk.org<BR>> Subject: [vtkusers] vtk and lot of dicom series<BR>> <BR>> hi folks, I am using vtk to display dicom image series. I am using<BR>> python and pyqt4 in linux. I have noticed that when I load for at<BR>> least 5 series of 200 MR images each one, my application get VERY<BR>> slow. I am using vtkGDCMImageReader and load every serie within a<BR>> vtkImageData for example this way:<BR>> <BR>> reader = vtkgdcm.vtkGDCMImageReader()<BR>> reader.SetFileNames(to_vtk_string_array(serie1))<BR>> reader.Update()<BR>> <BR>> I repeat this step in a thread for every serie and when it is loaded I<BR>> send a signal for display it with vtkImageViewer2 (could be an<BR>> vtkImageColorViewer from gdcm too)<BR>> <BR>> why is that, which is the recommended way to load and display a lot of<BR>> dicom image series?<BR>> <BR>> -- <BR>> Lic.
