Writing DICOM from non-DICOM

Discussion:

Granseier, Michael (VISUS)

Hello vtk-users,

my questions refers to an article in the Kitware Public Wiki
named "Proposals: Writing DICOM from non-DICOM".
(http://www.itk.org/Wiki/Proposals:Writing_DICOM_from_non-DICOM)

Actually I'm facing exactly this problem.
I want to write a DICOM-Series with the itkImageSeriesWriter and the GDCMImageIO.
But I don't use the itkImageSeriesReader before to read in a DICOM dataset.
Instead I have a raw-File and a mhd-Header-File, which I have written on my own in Java.

So the writer creates a DICOM series with exactly the same problems described in the wiki article.
The article was last modified on 10 April 2006.
I would like to know if there are any solutions for that problem by now.
Or is it possible to manually create a MetaDataDictionary containing all necesary informations from the DICOM-header?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Kind regards

Michael Granseier

Hi Michael,

This has been solved a long time ago.

Please use the following example:

Insight/Examples/IO/
ImageReadDicomSeriesWrite.cxx

This example shows you how to read an image
from a non-DICOM source (e.g. MetaImage,
Analyze, VTK...) and save it as a DICOM series.

It also shows how to alter some of the DICOM tags...
something that must be done carefully since you
will be altering / producing patient information.

Regards,

Luis

Here is an enhanced version of the example that processes command line
arguments:

Bill, Luis,

thanks a lot for your replies.

I have already tried the ImageReadDicomSeriesWrite example.
It worked. I don't know why I have overlooked it before. Sorry.

I will also try out the new example. Especially because I have to write the whole MetaDataDictionary on my own.

Thanks again and best regards,
Michael

Actually for me, my images are in PNG series. So, I need to convert each PNG
image in dicom image. Is there any itk code for this to do?

I don't know of an example which does exactly that. But starting with the
examples I mentioned, it should be mostly a simplification.
