Hi all.
I try to convert dicom to jpeg using dcmj2pnm (dcmj2pnm --write-jpeg input.dcm output.jpeg),but i got error (E: no pixel data found in DICOM dataset
F: Missing attribute).

How can i fix this issue?

Hi,

ahm, you could insert pixel data into the file?

No, seriously, it seems there is no Pixel Data element in your DICOM file which is required in DICOM for a valid image.

You can use dcmdump to have a look into the file and check whether the tag Pixel Data is existing (usually at the very end).

Best regards,
Michel
