Description

I have a problem: rt_utils.rtstruct.RTStruct.ROIException: Mask must have the same number of layers (In the 3rd dimension) as input series. expected 65, got 13. I understand that this is because the slices in the NIfTI file need to correspond to the DICOM file.
Now that I only have a mask.nii file and a complete DICOM folder, how do I determine the DICOM file that corresponds to this mask? Is there a tool that can help me with this task?

Research direction

Start by tracing platipy.dicom.io.nifti_to_rtruct into rt_utils.rtstruct.RTStruct and reproduce the layer-count exception with mask.nii and the DICOM folder. Determine whether the issue requires a code change or documentation explaining how to identify the matching DICOM series; completion should address the reported mismatch or clearly document the supported workflow.
