DICOM @ OFFIS

Hi Sergio,

Hm, never seen this error before -
which Windows OS, processor platform and compiler are you using?

Hi,

maybe you can use "dcmodify -i RescaleIntercept=-32768 c:\comparativa\b.IMG " to insert the attribute?

Hi, dcm2pnm is using a very similar call to class DicomImage: DicomImage *di = new DicomImage(dfile, xfer, opt_compatibilityMode, opt_frame - 1, opt_frameCount); I compiled dcmtk (with dcm2pnm) on my 64-bit Mac machine and dcm2pnm worked fine with some test images I tried. Maybe this is not a genera...

Hi Peer, I compiled the CVS version of DCMTK on my 64bit Mac Notebook (running Leopard) and the dictionary works fine for me (with --prefix set and "make install"). The path is automatically set to the dicitionary in the prefix path then. Are you sure that your DCMDICTPATH actually points ...

Hi, we worked on an SQL backend for a specific project outside DCMTK, which explains those comments in the source code. The SQL code was specialized for this project so wie did not publish it. If anyone has a working SQL backend and wants to make it available to the community, we would be happy addi...

Hi,

I removed the link from the FAQ - the project seems to be offline and I did not found any working link on Google.
Maybe some of the other forum users may help out with VTK / DCMTK integration.

Hi, findscu is able to query a worklist server or a DICOM PACS. Of course you need some query keys which tells the server what you are looking for (e. g. Name of the Patient, Date of Study etc.). You must specify these query keys through DICOM attributes (Patient's Name and Study Date in the example...

Use dcmdump from the module dcmdata to dump information of any DICOM file. We have some pre-built binaries available for windows and linux.

dcmdump your_file.dcm

Hi Ian, so far there no specific plans writing code for Unified Worklist, but of course we are interested having this new worklist service in DCMTK. Because DCMTK is not our main business we are always looking for companies willing to sponsor us for certain projects; or students willing to write the...

You can use the findAndGetFloat64 (documentation) which is applicable to VR DS. You can use the position parameter to get all three values of attribute Image Position Patient.

Hi, In general, yes, that would sound logical to me when using a DiCoMToolKit;) But it depends on what you want to do with DCMTK. If you just convert images from DICOM to JPG for example using an existing DCMTK application, you could start without being familar with DICOM. There are various other co...

Before filling in any values, please be sure to fully understand the DICOM hierarchy of Patient, Study, Series and Image (Instance). Instance UIDs are used to give a unique identifier to a study, series or images (among other). This number must be unique worldwide, so it is not enough to put a rando...

Hi,

so far there is no ready-to-use application in DCMTK. Probably the next release will contain such a tool. However we do not have a time schedule for that. The DICOM Toolkit dcm4chee from Gunter Zeilinger contains a JPG to DCM converter, take a look at this newsgroup posting.

Hi, Frame Increment pointer is NOT mandatory in case that Number of Frames = 1. The Multi-Frame Image Module definition is overriden in the SC Multi-Frame Image Module, which says for this attribute: Contains the Data Element Tag of the attribute which is used as the frame increment in Multi-frame p...

My colleague Jörg noted something a minute ago:

The ijg JPEG libraries are plain C code - maybe the CXXFLAGS you set are not evaluated at all when the compiler is in C mode. Try to provide the -m64 compiler flag also as CFLAGS option to the compiler.

Good luck,
Michael
