[David Young]

MATLAB has an Image Processing Toolbox which has many tools for image processing, including the function dicomread. To display an image stored in DICOM format, the following will normally be sufficient:

img = dicomread('filename');
imshow(img);

[Walter Roberson]

The Image Processing Toolbox is an optional (extra cost) toolbox that must be purchased for the Academic or Professional versions.

It is, however, included as part of the MATLAB Student Version.
