DICOM @ OFFIS

Sorry to get back so late on this issue. It turned out that indeed the there was nothing wrong with dcmtk. Somewhere in the chain (by a VS property sheet) it pulled in the header from a NON-shared dcmtk and that was, what screwed up my builds. Including in my test project (to verify). Kind of embarr...

I am testing the 'new' single shared library feature (single DLL) in a windows environment. The usage of inlining in certain classes avoid that it works in Vistual Studio (VS2010 Pro in my case). I.e., most of the member functions of DcmTagKey are implemented as inlines in the header ('dcmtk/dcmdata...

Hello DCMTK-team, I also 'stumbled' over this features. I am trying to extend my implementation of scp and scu with user identity negotiation and am reviewing what is available in the dcmtk (my code is based on the dcmtk). I was comparing the implementation to the DICOM standard and noticed that the...

Thanks, I didn't see that wiki before. I think it is very useful for people that are less experienced with the dcmtk in order to understand it a bit more. Actually, before modifying the dcmtk my approach was similar to 'approach 2'. But I find my approach through the global flag in DcmFileFormat, as...

Hello OFFIS-Team, I have some kind of feature request related to DcmFileFormat and reading files using private transfer syntaxes. Actually I would like to have a flag (similar to 'dcmIgnoreParsingErrors' and alike) to avoid DcmFileFormat to load files containing any private/unknown transfer syntax. ...

To reduce reading time on the media you may also want to modify the storescu code and exclude "well-known" file-types to be feed into DcmFileFormat::loadFile() that are not DICOM files, e.g. *.exe, *.jpg and so on. That should increase the processing speed since those files will not be tou...

Maybe a third solution :) ... 3) skip SCP functionality in movescu and use one storescp instead listing to a defined port. Then fire as many movescu-"requests" as you want and let storescp store the received datasets based on a unique scheme, e.g. the UIDs within the datasets and a scheme ...

Hello OFFIS-Team, Today I came across the status 0x0116H when printing on a FUJI DryPix4000 and using the "RequestedImageSize" attribute. Our print module of iQ-VIEW is based on the dcmtk. The DryPix complained about the value in "RequestedImageSize"and return 0116H "Attribu...

Hello Team, is there any plan to directly support the different character repertoires in the dcmdata, e.g. including code extensions, multibyte charactersets and so on? I know it is a lot of work, mainly thoughout the whole dcmdata module itself. But it is one of the things missing that bothers me t...

Hello OFFIS-Team, I get a compiler warning for quite some time now - actually since the user identity negotiation was introduced a while ago. I used to hack the DCMTK source to avoid it. But since I have to do that for all releases / snapshots that I use, I thought, I might let you know about it and...

Thanks for the analysis. So, knowing the data are containing 'bad' characters I still have the problem that the whole value is not rendered. When the test is disabled (as I have it for now) the result is ok. Actually, it would be nice to have a flag or option to control if a failing VR-test of the v...

Hello, I can confirm that the buffer issue seems to be fixed with my samples. Nevertheless I still have various SR datasets containing UT attributes that cause the vrscanner to fail. Using dsr2html it gives the following output: K:\DICOM\Datasets\SR\SRs>dsr2html.exe -d -Ee 00000002 00000002.htm D: $...

Hello OFFIS-Team, I am seeing a strange behavior converting a SR to XML. The SR contains an UT attribute (see mark in output). The 'vrscan::yylex()' call in 'DcmElement::scanValue()' results in an fatal error within the vrscan::yy_get_next_buffer() and therefore in a call to 'exit(1)'. Using the dsr...

Under VC 2008 I get the following warnings when setting the warning level to 4 (highest): 1. c:\dcmtk-3.5.5-win32-i386\include\dcmtk\dcmdata\dcobject.h(652) : warning C4512: 'DcmObject::PrintHelper' : assignment operator could not be generated c:\dcmtk-3.5.5-win32-i386\include\dcmtk\dcmdata\dcobject...

The problem is the value. The attribute 'patients age' has a value representation of AS. From the standard (PS 3.5-2008): A string of characters with one of the following formats -- nnnD, nnnW, nnnM, nnnY; where nnn shall contain the number of days for D, weeks for W, months for M, or years for Y.
