DICOM @ OFFIS

You could create the pixel data for the image tiles on demand, e.g. by sub-classing the DcmPixelItem class and overwriting the write() method. However, please be warned that creating a Basic or Extended Offset Table and also determining the value for Lossy Image Compression Ratio in advance might be...

In fact, there is a CMake option "DCMTK_WITH_OPENJPEG" but this is only shown when the advanced variables are enabled:
However, as the comment shows, this option is currently only used by DCMJP2K.

Your statement is correct. Whether you should/could use the IANA UID prefix for your intended purposes has to be checked by your company. I was pointing to IANA since registration is free of charge (in contrast to DIN). As far as I known, also DIMDI allows for registering a OID/UID prefix.

If I were you, I would register my own prefix (e.g. here ), add some infix for your current use case (e.g. DICOM product), add the serial number of the device/product (if applicable) and then some suffix that makes sure that you do not generate the same UID twice. For the latter, you could also reus...

Apart from the (commercial) Windows tool "dcm2avi", there is no ready to use conversion tool for "DICOM multi-frame image to standard video format". Of course, it would be possible to develop such a tool (based on the DCMTK) but please note that licensing issues have to be solved, too (e.g. the use ...

Yes, it sounds like the Storage SCU (dcm2chee) is starting multiple associations on the same port. This is only supported if storescp is started in "fork mode".

What do you mean by "DICOM file into video"? Do you want to convert a DICOM file (e.g. Video Endoscopic Image) to a standard video format (such as MPEG)?

As I wrote, this is a warning message and no error. So you can ignore it. If you don't want to propose the Presentation LUT SOP Class (since the SCP does not support it), you should set "SupportsPresentationLUT = false" for your "DRYPIX4000" printer in the configuration file ("/etc/dcmtk/dcmpstat.cf...

From config/docs/macros.txt (DCMTK 3.6.4): DISABLE_RECV_TIMEOUT This macro is not supported anymore since the timeout for the recv() function is now configurable at runtime. See global variable dcmSocketReceiveTimeout. The socket timeout is now configurable for various DCMTK network tools, e.g. stor...

I'm sorry but your question is not clear to me: What have you tried, what is the result, what do you want to do...? Do you mean the warning message "spooler: printer does not support Presentation LUT SOP Class, presentation LUT related print job settings will be ignored." that is reported by the Pri...

Do dcmtk support this API? You mean a high-level API for this purpose? The short answer is: no. If not, how do I implement it? This is something one cannot explain in a few sentences, so it is out of scope of this forum (IMHO). Of course, you can access DICOM WSI (Whole Slide Micropscopy Image) obj...

The Presentation LUT SOP Class is an optional extension to DICOM Print Management. If if is not supported by the SCP, you cannot use it.

I'm sure there is some place in the forum that explains the best practises to contribute for dcmtk but i wasn't able to find it.

The best way to contribute to the DCMTK would be to send a patch via email (to "bugs/at/dcmtk/dot/org"). A direct push to the git repository is not possible.

I also think that the OP misinterpreted what option -if is meant for. Reading the documentation and examples in the man page would probably help: -if --insert-from-file: dcmodify -if "PixelData=pixel.raw" file.dcm Inserts the content of file 'pixel.raw' into the PixelData element of 'file.dcm'. The ...

... and that's why I proposed to use pdf2dcm's option --study-from:
