How do you access the Windows ThumbnailCache in WPF?

I'm trying to make use of Window's ThumbnailCache in a WPF application. I'm starting with a path to an image file and hoping to end up with a Media.Imaging.BitmapImage that holds the thumbnail.

I've been piecing things together, but I'm starting to think I'm on the wrong track. This feels like a lot of code to do what ought to be straightforward.

Am I on the wrong track with this?

    public BitmapImage Thumbnail { get; set; }

    private void LoadThumbnail()
    {
        IShellItem shellItem;
        SHCreateItemFromParsingName(FilePath, IntPtr.Zero, typeof(IShellItem).GUID, out shellItem);

        IntPtr hBitmap = IntPtr.Zero;
        ((IShellItemImageFactory)shellItem).GetImage(new SIZE(256, 256), 0x0, out hBitmap);

        try
        {
            BitmapSource bitmapSource = System.Windows.Interop.Imaging.CreateBitmapSourceFromHBitmap(
                hBitmap,
                IntPtr.Zero,
                Int32Rect.Empty,
                BitmapSizeOptions.FromEmptyOptions());

            BitmapImage bitmapImage = new BitmapImage();

            ??? BitmapImage from BitmapSource...

            Thumbnail = bitmapImage;
        }
        finally
        {
            DeleteObject(hBitmap);
        }
    }

There is an open source library for reading thumbs.db files available here:

It includes full sourcecode. Might be easier than trying to do-it-yourself!
