Is there a tool that converts common graphic formats like PGM/PPM, PNG, TIFF, JPEG or BMP to DICOM?
No, unfortunately, there is no such tool in DCMTK. Currently, you have to write your own little program for that purpose.The following code snippet from the toolkit's documentation could be a starting point:
Code: Select all
char uid[100];
DcmFileFormat fileformat;
DcmDataset *dataset = fileformat.getDataset();
dataset->putAndInsertString(DCM_SOPClassUID, UID_SecondaryCaptureImageStorage);
dataset->putAndInsertString(DCM_SOPInstanceUID, dcmGenerateUniqueIdentifier(uid, SITE_INSTANCE_UID_ROOT));
dataset->putAndInsertString(DCM_PatientsName, "Doe^John");
/* ... */
dataset->putAndInsertUint8Array(DCM_PixelData, pixelData, pixelLength);
OFCondition status = fileformat.saveFile("test.dcm", EXS_LittleEndianExplicit);
if (status.bad())
cerr << "Error: cannot write DICOM file (" << status.text() << ")" << endl;
