Hugo, try

dicomwrite(X, strcat(uigetdir,'myfilename.dcm'));

where X represents the image to be written. Of course, you can replace the hard-coded filename with any valid string variable.

Pathnames are OS specific (e.g. windows uses backslash while decent operating systems use a forward slash). To concatenate directories and files, independent of OS, you are advised to use FULLPATH

directoryName = uigetdir 
fullname = fullpath(directoryName, FileName)
