Parameter |
Description |
|
hDS |
A DICOM handle to the data set. |
|
pszUID |
Character string that contains the UID of the new transfer syntax. Possible values are: |
|
|
Value |
Meaning |
|
UID_IMPLICIT_VR_LITTLE_ENDIAN |
"1.2.840.10008.1.2" |
|
UID_EXPLICIT_VR_LITTLE_ENDIAN |
"1.2.840.10008.1.2.1" |
|
UID_EXPLICIT_VR_BIG_ENDIAN |
"1.2.840.10008.1.2.2" |
|
UID_JPEG_BASELINE_1 |
"1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.50" |
|
UID_JPEG_EXTENDED_2_4 |
"1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.51" |
|
UID_JPEG_LOSSLESS_NONHIER_14 |
"1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.57" |
|
UID_JPEG_LOSSLESS_NONHIER_14B |
"1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.70" |
|
UID_RLE_LOSSLESS |
"1.2.840.10008.1.2.5" |
|
UID_JPEG2000_LOSSLESS_ONLY |
"1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.90" |
|
UID_JPEG2000 |
"1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.91" |
nQFactor |
The quality factor (Q factor) is a number that determines the degree of loss in the compression process. You can set a value from 2 to 255, where 2 is the highest quality and 255 is the most compression. This parameter only applies when the new transfer syntax will involve compressing pixel data using a lossy compression. |
|
uFlags |
Flag that indicates how the compression will be performed. Possible values are: |
|
|
Value |
Meaning |
|
DICOM_CHANGETRAN_MINIMIZE_JPEG_SIZE |
[0x00000001] If set, and the new transfer syntax uses JPEG compression, the JPEG compression engine will use optimized Huffman tables, which results in better compression, but slower speed. |
Returns
0 |
SUCCESS |
>0 |
An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes. |
Comments
This function will convert the data set's transfer syntax to the transfer syntax specified in pszUID, maintaining all elements and values in the data set.
After this function is called all previous references to data elements in the data set will no longer be valid.
This function is especially useful when sending a C_STORE_REQ message using the L_DicomSendCStoreRequest function. The user can match the data set transfer syntax with the transfer syntax of the SCP.
