BUG: Fixed loading of DICOM image from files containing special characters

Andras Lasso requested to merge github/fork/lassoan/dicom-loading-from-filenames-with-special-chars into master

Got some DICOM files that contained a special character in the file names and in the patient name. Slicer failed to load them because lack of proper encoding before using them.

Solution:

  • Encode strings to latin1 before using them in VTK set functions.
  • Encode file names to a byte stream before sending them to hashlib.
