Dear All,

I have some ‘jpg’ image file which was extracted from 3D numerical simulations. I images are extracted in all 3 views (Axial, Coronal and Sagittal). Now, I converted these images to dicom files based on standard dicom informations.

For axial, coronal and sagittal, I changed the I **nstanceNumber, ImagePositionPatient, ImageOrientationPatient** accordingly.

1. When I load all 3 combined files together, all the files show in axial panel only.

2. If I load only axial, the coronal and sagittal views are automatically constructed from those axial plane slices. But I dont want this.

3. **How do I load all 3 views in a separate window?**

Any leads will be appreciated.

Regards,  
Sunag R A.
