Code: Select all
$dcmtk: dcmconv v3.6.0 2011-01-06 $
dcmconv: Convert DICOM file encoding
usage: dcmconv [options] dcmfile-in dcmfile-out
parameters:
dcmfile-in DICOM input filename to be converted
dcmfile-out DICOM output filename
general options:
-h --help print this help text and exit
--version print version information and exit
--arguments print expanded command line arguments
-q --quiet quiet mode, print no warnings and errors
-v --verbose verbose mode, print processing details
-d --debug debug mode, print debug information
-ll --log-level [l]evel: string constant
(fatal, error, warn, info, debug, trace)
use level l for the logger
-lc --log-config [f]ilename: string
use config file f for the logger
input options:
input file format:
+f --read-file read file format or data set (default)
+fo --read-file-only read file format only
-f --read-dataset read data set without file meta information
input transfer syntax:
-t= --read-xfer-auto use TS recognition (default)
-td --read-xfer-detect ignore TS specified in the file meta header
-te --read-xfer-little read with explicit VR little endian TS
-tb --read-xfer-big read with explicit VR big endian TS
-ti --read-xfer-implicit read with implicit VR little endian TS
parsing of file meta information:
+ml --use-meta-length use file meta information group length (default)
-ml --ignore-meta-length ignore file meta information group length
parsing of odd-length attributes:
+ao --accept-odd-length accept odd length attributes (default)
+ae --assume-even-length assume real length is one byte larger
handling of non-standard VR:
+vr --treat-as-unknown treat non-standard VR as unknown (default)
-vr --assume-implicit try to read with implicit VR little endian TS
handling of undefined length UN elements:
+ui --enable-cp246 read undefined len UN as implicit VR (default)
-ui --disable-cp246 read undefined len UN as explicit VR
handling of defined length UN elements:
-uc --retain-un retain elements as UN (default)
+uc --convert-un convert to real VR if known
handling of private max-length elements (implicit VR):
-sq --maxlength-dict read as defined in dictionary (default)
+sq --maxlength-seq read as sequence with undefined length
general handling of parser errors:
+Ep --ignore-parse-errors try to recover from parse errors
-Ep --handle-parse-errors handle parse errors and stop parsing (default)
other parsing options:
+st --stop-after-elem [t]ag: "gggg,eeee" or dictionary name
stop parsing after element specified by t
automatic data correction:
+dc --enable-correction enable automatic data correction (default)
-dc --disable-correction disable automatic data correction
output options:
output file format:
+F --write-file write file format (default)
+Fm --write-new-meta-info write file format with new meta information
-F --write-dataset write data set without file meta information
output transfer syntax:
+t= --write-xfer-same write with same TS as input (default)
+te --write-xfer-little write with explicit VR little endian TS
+tb --write-xfer-big write with explicit VR big endian TS
+ti --write-xfer-implicit write with implicit VR little endian TS
post-1993 value representations:
+u --enable-new-vr enable support for new VRs (UN/UT) (default)
-u --disable-new-vr disable support for new VRs, convert to OB
group length encoding:
+g= --group-length-recalc recalculate group lengths if present (default)
+g --group-length-create always write with group length elements
-g --group-length-remove always write without group length elements
length encoding in sequences and items:
+e --length-explicit write with explicit lengths (default)
-e --length-undefined write with undefined lengths
+eo --write-oversized write oversized explict length sequences
and items with undefined length (default)
-eo --abort-oversized abort on oversized explicit sequences/items
data set trailing padding (not with --write-dataset):
-p= --padding-retain do not change padding
(default if not --write-dataset)
-p --padding-off no padding (implicit if --write-dataset)
+p --padding-create [f]ile-pad [i]tem-pad: integer
align file on multiple of f bytes
and items on multiple of i bytes
other output options:
-ig --no-invalid-groups don't write elements with invalid group number
Is this deprecated in favor of a different method of uncompressing, and the documents just aren't updated ?
