Hi Hugh,

Looks like your data are JPEG encoded. Having waded through the DICOM
specifications (no fun at all), I eventually came across the bit that
mentions that the ridiculously-named '1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.70' transfer
syntax actually means 'lossless JPEG compression'. I'm afraid you're out of
luck, since I've no plans to implement support for that any time soon. I
also have a feeling that you'll have trouble finding other free software to
read these data: in my (limited) experience, none of them support JPEG - I
may be wrong though, maybe someone else on this list can suggest something
else...?

That said, I'd be happy to help if anyone wants to try coding up support
for JPEG...

Sorry I can't be more help...
Cheers,

Donald.
