Hi Community,

I am having problems when loading up Dental DICOM images as the Sagittal and Coronal views are being loaded upside down. This does not occur when I open these DICOM images on other platforms.  
Has anyone else experienced this problem or know how to address it?

Thank you

Senn

You need to load DICOM images using DICOM module.

If you use “Add data” then ITK reader is used, which may not load all images correctly. [We plan to remove this option](https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer/issues/5726) but has not happened yet.
