definition	MLDicomTreeModules.def

Purpose

The LoadDicomTree allows loading a DICOM file as a DicomTree. This is useful if you are only interested in the DICOM tags rather than the image data. It can also be used to load non-image DICOM files, such as RTstruct/RTplan files. The DicomTree is scriptable through Python scripting.

Alternatively, you can also load a DicomTree via pure Python scripting using MLAB.loadDicomTree().
