DICOM @ OFFIS

Why don't you just use the filename as a distinction? The name of a DICOMDIR file must always be "DICOMDIR". Files with DICOM images will never have the name "DICOMDIR".

We were asking for the storage SCP, i.e. the receiver of the images. Which software are you using to receive the images?

I don't have the exact code you are looking for, since a tool with such a functionality is not included in DCMTK. See FAQ #34 where you can also find a piece of source code that might help you. In general, I think you are looking for code like this (which still has to be modified according to your s...

Regarding window width/center, a good idea is to use function DicomImage::setMinMaxWindow(...). The values in the WindowCenter and WindowWidth attributes in the DICOM header are not always appropriate.

Are you sure the right compiler (gcc-3.4.1) is used? Use "gcc --version" to find out if that is the case. If not, check your environment settings.

Regarding window width/center, a good start is to use function DicomImage::setMinMaxWindow(...).

Did you insert an item (class DcmItem) into your Performed Series Sequence attribute? Use e.g. DcmSequenceOfItems::insert(...) or DcmSequenceOfItems::append(...) to do so. Having done that, you can insert a Referenced Image Sequence into the item.

All code you need for dcm2xml is indeed contained in DCMTK. However, you apparently forgot to insert dcmdata/apps/dcm2xml.cc into your "separate project". This file contains the main()-routine for dcm2xml.

The C++ compiler you are using is, unfortunately, not fully implemented. You will have to use a different compiler to be able to compile DCMTK. Here is a list of supported compilers on UNIX platforms (from the INSTALL file): Unix (or lookalikes) -------------------- The current DCMTK software releas...

Make sure the file which contains your main()-routine is included in the project you are compiling. The linker error at the top indicates that you dont even have one file contained in the project you are compiling, if that is really the case, let me tell you that this does not make any sense. I assu...

Thank you for your effort! Could you please also let us know which version of CMake you are using in order to build the project files?

Thanks a lot again!

See here for examples that will help you in your scenario. If you need to access patient/study information which is contained in a DICOM file, please use class DcmFileFormat. In order to retrieve this kind of information from a DICOM file, check out function DcmFileFormat::getDataset() (like in the ...

DICOM defines various data structures for all types of medical images. For example, there are data structures for MR images, for ultrasound (US) images, for CT images, for digital x-ray images (DX) and so on. The data structures for these types of medical images are defined in part 3 of the DICOM st...

You are correct, getOutputData is the right way to access the pixel data of a DICOM object. For an example, see here.
