DICOM @ OFFIS

Late follow-up: On Monday 2012-07-09, we switched from CVS to git for our internal source code management and at the same time added tags for the snapshots after the DCMTK 3.6.0 release. See: http://git.dcmtk.org/web?p=dcmtk.git;a=tags

But what if it we get any series which contains both images and structured report ? Should we treat such structured report as corrupted. ... then this would be a violation of the DICOM standard. How you handle this situation is up to you (i.e. to your implementation). Also according to standards, s...

No, because SR documents have a different modality (e.g. "SR" or "KO").

Checking the SOP Class UID is the "official" way of doing this! You could use DSRTyes::sopClassUIDToDocumentType() if you want.

I tried to understand dsr2html.exe command prompt option. Can you also please tell me how to disable footer "This page was generated from a DICOM Structured Reporting document by OFFIS DCMTK 3.6.0." I can change it in dcmtk code base directly(line number 1621 dsrdoc.cc file) , but i think...

Thank you for the report. This seems to be caused by the following commit: http://git.dcmtk.org/web?p=dcmtk.git;a=commitdiff;h=1043fc0c801a1fe5de85a722d6d538bf16977731#patch2 Could you check whether it works again without the ".lib" file extension (as it was before)? Thanks. Btw, we tested...

Ignoring (default) libraries is usually a bad idea. You should better make sure that your project is compiled with the same code generation settings as DCMTK!

I cannot tell you what's wrong with Word. This is something you have to ask Microsoft :wink: As you can read in the documentation and in the comment that is contained in dsr2xml.xsd, the purpose of this XML Schema is to validate the input of xml2dsr (and the output of dsr2xml). For example, xml2dsr ...

Example code for decompression of JPEG-compressed DICOM images can be found in the documentation.

The third column of the referenced table contains the "Character Repertoire", e.g. "'0'-'9' of Default Character Repertoire" for DA. Is it possible to annomize the date format of DICOM data in the above format type ? If the date field is type 2, you can replace it with an empty v...

You should check Table 6.2-1 in PS 3.5-2011, e.g. "1983/02/15" is definitely not allowed.

The encoding of Person Name (PN) values is defined in part 5 of the DICOM standard. If you are using the API (i.e. if you are programming and not just calling the command line tools), DcmPersonName::putNameComponents() and DcmPersonName::getNameComponents() might be interesting for you.

The list of compression schemes supported by the JPEG decoders can be found in the documentation, e.g. here. Depending on what you mean by "JPEG Extended (Lossy Compressed)", decoder support is available as part of the DCMTK or not.

That's easy to understand: The following code line only registers the decoders for conventional JPEG, i.e. not for JPEG2000, which is a totally different compression scheme:
For JPEG2000 you need e.g. this DCMTK extension.

The encoding of compressed pixel data is described in section A.4 of part 5 of the DICOM standard. The DICOM file you've sent us is not DICOM compliant (not only is this respect, but this is the main reason for your problems). I've also added a new entry to our internal to-do list, because DCMTK sho...
