MedicalHelperDicomGetImagePosition Method
Get the "Image Position (Patient)" attribute (0020,0032) from a DICOM volume. DICOM calls this the upper left hand corner of the image, but more precisely it's the center of the first voxel, in millimeters (mm). For VolumeViz the upper left hand corner of the image is literally the corner of the voxel, one-half voxel different from Image Position. Note the SoVRDicomData getPosition() method does not return the value of the Image Position attribute. It returns a value computed from Image Position.
