const unsigned long  flags = 0,
const unsigned long  fstart = 0,
const unsigned long  fcount = 0 
)

constructor, open a DICOM file.

Opens specified file and reads image related data, creates internal representation of image data. Use getStatus() to obtain detailed information about any errors.

Parameters:
filenamethe DICOM file
flagsconfiguration flags (see diutils.h, CIF_MayDetachPixelData is set automatically)
fstartfirst frame to be processed (optional, 0 = 1st frame), all subsequent use of parameters labeled 'frame' in this class refers to this start frame.

constructor, use a given DcmObject

Parameters:
objectpointer to DICOM data structures (fileformat, dataset or item). (do not delete while referenced, i.e. while this image object or any descendant exists; not deleted within dcmimage unless configuration flag CIF_TakeOverExternalDataset is set - in this case do not delete it at all)
xfertransfer syntax of the 'object'. (could also be EXS_Unknown in case of fileformat or dataset)
flagsconfiguration flags (CIF_xxx, see diutils.h)

unsigned long DicomImage::createWindowsDIB ( void *&  data,
const unsigned long  size,
const unsigned long  frame = 0,
const int  bits = 24,
const int  upsideDown = 0,
const int  padding = 1 
) [inline]

create true color (24/32 bit) or palette (8 bit) bitmap for MS Windows.

8 bit images require an appropriate color palette (256 entries, values: 0 to 255) and are only applicable to monochrome images, the beginning of a each line starts on a 32-bit address (if 'padding' is true); 24 bit images store 24 bits per pixel (BGR) and do align each line to a 32-bit address (if 'padding' is true); 32 bit images store 32 bits per pixel (ARGB), but only use the lower 24 bits (-RGB). The memory buffer can be allocated both externally (from the calling program) and internally (inside this class/module). If the 'data' parameter is not NULL and the 'size' parameter, which describes the size (in bytes) of the allocated buffer, is suffiently large, the bitmap is stored in this buffer. Otherwise (i.e. 'data' is NULL) the memory is allocated internally. Please note that in both cases the memory is not handled internally after this method has finished and, therefore, must be deleted from the calling program. This method does not work if original YCbCr color model is retained (see CIF_KeepYCbCrColorModel).

Parameters:
datauntyped pointer memory buffer (set to NULL if not allocated externally)
sizesize of the memory buffer in bytes (if 0 'data' is set to NULL)
frameindex of frame to be converted (default: 0 = first frame)
bitsnumber of bits per pixel used for the output bitmap (8, 24 or 32, default: 24)
upsideDownflag indicating whether the first line stored is the top-most (default: 0) or the bottom-most of the source image (as required by the BMP file format)
paddingalign each line to a 32-bit address if true (default)
Returns:
number of bytes allocated by the bitmap, or 0 if an error occured

int DicomImage::writeFrameToDataset ( DcmItem dataset,
const int  bits = 0,
const unsigned long  frame = 0,
const int  planar = 0 
) [inline]

render pixel data of the given frame and write image related attributes to DICOM dataset.

Applies VOI/PLUT transformation and (visible) overlay planes, output data is always padded to 8, 16, 32, ... bits (bits allocated). Replaces any modality transformation in the dataset by a linear rescale/slope since the modality transformation is rendered into the pixel data. Replaces the VOI transformations in the dataset by a "max range" VOI window. Removes all Overlay Plane Module attributes for embedded overlay planes from the dataset. Writes the following DICOM attributes (from Image Pixel Module):

  • Photometric Interpretation, Samples per Pixel
  • Columns, Rows, Number of Frames
  • Bits Allocated, Bits Stored, High Bit
  • Planar Configuration (only if "Samples per Pixel" is greater than 1)
  • Pixel Representation, Pixel Data Updates the following DICOM attributes (if present in the original image dataset):
  • Pixel Spacing and/or Pixel Aspect Ratio Supported output color models: Monochrome 2, RGB (and YCbCr_Full if flag CIF_KeepYCbCrColorModel set).
Parameters:
datasetreference to DICOM dataset where the image attributes are stored
bitsnumber of bits per sample (image depth, 1..MAX_BITS)
framenumber of frame to be rendered (0..n-1)
planar0 = color-by-pixel (R1G1B1...R2G2B2...R3G3B3...), 1 = color-by-plane (R1R2R3...G1G2G3...B1B2B3...) (only applicable to multi-planar/color images, otherwise ignored)

int DicomImage::writeImageToDataset ( DcmItem dataset,
const int  mode = 0,

write current image and related attributes to DICOM dataset.

Uses the internal representation of the pixel data, therefore the output data is always padded to 8, 16, 32, ... bits (bits allocated). Replaces any modality transformation in the dataset by a linear rescale/slope since the modality transformation is rendered into the pixel data. Removes all Overlay Plane Module attributes for embedded overlay planes from the dataset. Writes the following DICOM attributes (from Image Pixel Module):

  • Photometric Interpretation, Samples per Pixel
  • Columns, Rows, Number of Frames
  • Bits Allocated, Bits Stored, High Bit

  • Pixel Spacing and/or Pixel Aspect Ratio Supported output color models: Monochrome 1/2, RGB (and YCbCr_Full if flag CIF_KeepYCbCrColorModel set).
Parameters:
datasetreference to DICOM dataset where the image attributes are stored
mode0 = determine value of BitsStored from 'used' pixel values, 1 = determine value of BitsStored from 'possible' pixel values (used for monochrome images only)
