Is there a way to change order of dicoms?

Hi! I'm creating a code with Matlab to import and process dicoms.

I'd like to load images and I tried to do this with function 'dicomread' and it works, but I'd like change order of images.

For example: if images go from number 1 to 50, the code will load images from 50 to 1, with order (input) that is given by user. Is it possible?

That is just a matter of how you make your code. dicomread works on a file by file basis, so it's your choice in what order you read them.

X = dicomread(filename);
X = X(:, :, :, size(X, 4):-1:1);

Or maybe:

n = 50;
for k = 1:n
  X = dicomread(filename, 'frames', n + 1 - k);
  ...
end

I'd like to do this according preferences to user. For example: if I have 10 images, I'd like to insert an input that ask to user the order of these images, like

x = [input ('Insert order of images:')];

and this could be: 10 9 8 6 3 2 4 7 5 1

How can I do? Thank you!!

@sc: Did you read my answer and the documentation of dicomread?

x = input ('Insert order of images:');  % No surrounding [ and ]!
Img = dicomread(filename, 'frames', x);
