Dicom image reading help

hi, I have 64 dicom slices in a file as: 001.dcm 002.dcm 003.dcm 004.dcm 005.dcm . . . . .064.dcm

I want to read these from a file one by one for some processing on each individual slice? How can l do it probably by using Loop, Please....?

You will need the Image Processing Toolbox. Here is a reference: http://www.mathworks.nl/help/images/ref/dicomread.html

On this page there is an example:

info = dicominfo('CT-MONO2-16-ankle.dcm');
Y = dicomread(info);
figure, imshow(Y);
imcontrast;

Please note that the image you use can be yours.

I would do something like

a = dir('*.dcm')

for i=1:length(a)
  info = dicominfo(a(i).name);
  Y = dicomread(info);
  figure, imshow(Y);
  %%or do some other procesing.
  imcontrast;

end

Thank you for reply! but it shows nothing when i use it on command window. Okey! I make my question more simple I have a folder named patient in matlab's current directory I want to read all the 64 MR dicom images from it one by one for further processing.
