VTK DICOMImageReader Error

Hello, everyone!

I got an unknown error while using the VTK library on Python, so I need help if anyone knows.
There are DICOM files that open normally in ITK snap, but there is data that fails when creating a maximum intensity projection (MIP) through VTK.

To view this data

dicom_reader = vtk.vtkDICOMImageReader()
dicom_reader.SetDirectoryName(data_dir)
dicom_reader.Update()
print(dicom_reader)

When you read the dicom reader in this way, the output below appears.

Compared to the existing normal data, the difference is ErrorCode: FileFormatError.
In normal data, this part appears as NoError.

I searched but I couldn’t find anything that was written in detail about this part. If anyone knows, can you tell me what the problem is?

Thank you.


Additionally, the error message appears like this.
