Hi,
Using the "dcmmkdir" tool, I tried to create a DICOMDIR for the images that will be located on a peer directory called "dicom", a structure something like:
[File]
C:\TEMP\DICOMDIR
[Folder with DICOM images]
C:\TEMP\DICOM
1) What is the minimal command using dcmmkdir to do this using absolute paths?
2) What is wrong with the following command?
C:\TOOLS\dcmmkdir.exe --output-file C:\TEMP\DICOMDIR --input-directory DICOM C:\TEMP\DICOM\*.*
which generates the following error for every DICOM image:
Error: invalid character(s) in filename: C:\TEMP\DICOM\25587791
Note: There is pointer ("^") under the ":" character of "C:\TEMP\DICOM\*.*"
Afaik in Unix, one needs no ":" character to express a root path. But in my case (Windows) it is a must for the absolute paths and a quotation ("") over the path doesn't help.
Thanks in advance...

As a beginner level DICOMer, I want to thank you guys behind this wonderful toolkit. Without the DCMTK, it would be a real pain to enter to the DICOM world.

The file IDs (i.e. filenames) in the DICOMDIR need to be relative to the directory where the DICOMDIR file resides. In your case, "--input-directory C:\TEMP\" is probably what you mean.
The complete command line could be something like the following:
The complete command line could be something like the following:
Code: Select all
dcmmkdir --recurse --output-file C:\TEMP\DICOMDIR --input-directory C:\TEMP DICOM
