Have you tried the Dicom Import/Export plugin (http://www.iftm.de/telemedizin/dcmimex.htm)? It supports multiple-slice import from a normal folder as well as DICOMDIR format.

Subject: automatically load DICOM stack from folder

Hi,
I would like my plugin to open a DICOM image into a stack, just like from the menu "file .. import sequence.." when the folder is known, where all the files (slices) are.
The code would look something like:

ImagePlus thisDicom = IJ.load("path-to-folder", "DICOM")
or
ImagePlus thisDicom = IJ.loadDicom("path-to-folder")

Can I do this (even if it means downloading a class library and using 'import newLibrary.*;' at the head of the plugin) ?
