Serialization of DicomImage ?

[vpellichero]

Hi,

I'm newbie with the dcmtk library and I would like to know if there is a way to serialize a DicomImage object in order to send it over the network to a process running on another computer ?

If this is possible, can you tell how I can do that (functions to use, etc) ?

Thanks in advance

class DicomImage does not provide methods for serialization or persistence. Since each DicomImage instance is initialized from a DICOM image object (which can easily be serialized and shared between processes), it would probably be preferrable to just exchange information about the source image and possible display parameters (window center/width etc.).
