DICOM @ OFFIS

I like to have a behaviour which is similar to other applications where it is possible to apply a stored VOI LUT and do a window levelling afterwards. This behaviour could be simulated by copying the VOI LUT into the ModaylityLutSequence within DCMTK, but this is not what I really want.

Hi all, I have a question regarding levelling on images containing VOI LUTs. As of PS 3.3 2008 C.11.2.1.2 p.881 it is not possible to apply VOI LUTs and windows at the same time. This seems reasonable to me. But is there a possibility in DCMTK to alter the brightness/contrast or output-range (window...

This happens with DCMTK 3.5.4.

Hi there! Images loaded with the option CIF_MayDetachPixelData are corrupt after calling writeImageToDataset() and saving them again. This happens at least when the following conditions are met: BitsAllocated = 16 BitsStored = 16 HighBit = 15 RescaleSlope > 1 Loading such a file and saving it produc...

Hi there! When dealing with 1Bit Overlay Planes from Tag (0x6000,0x3000), DCMTK 3.5.4 crashes within DiOverlayPlane::getNextBit() in diovpln.h. The error results from DiOverlayPlane::reset(). StartPtr always points to the start of the current frame while BitPos counts from start of Data. The result ...

So do I understand correctly, that rangeToBits returns the bit-range necessary for the stored values with rescale intercept applied?

Hi there! DicomImageClass::rangeToBits uses tobits from diutils.h to calculate the number of bits necessary for a specific value. Is the adding of 1 to the result of tobits intended? Because this leads to a higher number of bits than I expect. Or am I just misinterpreting the functionality of this m...
