DICOM @ OFFIS

We have got a bad DICOM file, containing wrong content in meta tag (0002,0010) TransferSyntaxUID: # Dicom-File-Format # Dicom-Meta-Information-Header # Used TransferSyntax: Little Endian Explicit (0002,0000) UL 216 # 4, 1 FileMetaInformationGroupLength (0002,0001) OB 00\01 # 2, 1 FileMetaInformation...

I want to send a large JPEG-compressed multiframe dataset to an SCP which requires decompression (i.e. does not accept lossy compression). But decompressing using pDataset->chooseRepresentation() doesnt work because the uncompressed dataset is too large. I tried the same dataset to expand using dcmd...

I try to use a custom pattern for file logging: const char *pattern = "%D{%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%q} %5p: %m%n"; OFunique_ptr<dcmtk::log4cplus::Layout> layout(new dcmtk::log4cplus::PatternLayout(pattern)); logfile->setLayout(OFmove(layout)); //... dcmtk::log4cplus::SharedAppenderPtr logfile(new...

Thank you for the quick response.
To copy the (only one) item of a SQ, is the following code correct?

I want to copy a tag content from one dataset (worklist record) to another dataset (image), while assigning a new tag. This should work with any VR, including deep copy of SQ. Examples: DCM_RequestedProcedureID of worklist response should be copied to DCM_StudyID of image created DCM_RequestedProced...

When parsing an SR document from a new ultrasound device (with dsr2xml), I get some strange errors: E: Cannot add "has obs context NUM" to TEXT in Enhanced SR E: Reading content item "1.8.2.1" (Invalid by-value Relationship) E: Reading content item TEXT "1.8.2" (Invalid...

We use the DcmTk to receive images from modalities. The call used is ASC_receiveAssociation( network, &assoc, m_maxReceivePDULength, NULL, NULL, OFFalse, DUL_NOBLOCK, 1); Sometimes it occurs, that the socket is no longer responding to connections at all. We found out that the socket state in tha...

Unfortunately, this doesn't solve the problem, because I need
DCMTK_MODULES = config;ofstd;oflog;dcmdata;dcmimgle;dcmimage;dcmjpeg;dcmjpls;dcmnet;dcmsr;dcmwlm
This list seems to be too long.

Thank you for fixing the issue regarding the private constructor. Nevertheless, I cannot compile as single DLL in VC6 (in VC 10 it works). The compiler gives no error, but no DLL is created. If this works on your side, please tell me the CMake settings which should work. (I need DCMTK_WITH_THREADS a...

I guess that this is the output from running the INSTALL target? I guess that I never tested this one... However, the output suggests that dcmtk.dll was not build. Do you get any error messages from the dcmtk target? No, I get no error from the INSTALL target. The message is the same when building ...

In the november 2012 snapshot, you stated that now it is possible to build a single dcmtk.dll. I tried this, also with the latest snapshot dcmtk-8f6a406 downloaded today, but it doesnt work. I used VC6 and the CMake settings BUILD_SINGLE_SHARED_LIBRARY. CMake then automatically diabels BUILD_APPS an...

I solved it:
the Library was called from 2 DLLs which both statically linked the DcmTK. This is not allowed because the global data is created twice then.

I have a strange problem: In the beginning of my application, I register some decoders: DJDecoderRegistration::registerCodecs(); DcmRLEDecoderRegistration::registerCodecs(); after that, &DcmCodecList::registeredCodecs = 0x065fc370 (example), and the list contains 7 elements ... later in the prog...

I was very happy that you announced support for sending large DICOM elements without loading the whole element into memory in DCMTK 3.6. However, I didn't find any further information on how to use that feature (DcmWriteCache?). Do you have any sample code to get started with? Do the new versions of...

When creating a multi-frame image using DcmPixelSequenze::storeCompressedFrame(), the offset in the offset list is sometimes wrong: if the image added has an odd length, it is padded to an even length, but the currentSize isn't corrected. This leads to wrong offsets in the offset table when generate...
