It seems I'm doing something wrong but not aware of it.

In the dicom_info.rb file which is attached, I made a change in the the
loop for retrieving dicom files as follows:

Dir["./public/images/dcm_files/*.dcm"].each do |dcm|
dicom_files << dcm
end

In this case, when I "View source", I get the path as follows:

<img alt="05115014-mr-siemens-avanto-syngo-with-palette-icone"
src="/images/./public/images/dcm_files/05115014-mr-siemens-avanto-syngo-with-palette-icone.jpg"
/>

Provided that I'm using:

<%= image_tag(@examination.image) %>

In "show.html.erb".

How can I overcome this path issue?
