Parameter |
Description |
hDS |
A DICOM handle. |
pModalityLUTAttributes |
Pointer to a structure to be updated with the Modality LUT attributes. |
uStructSize |
Size of the DICOMMLUTATTRIBS structure. Pass sizeof(DICOMMLUTATTRIBS). |
uFlags |
Reserved for future use. Pass 0. |
Returns
0 |
The function was successful. |
>0 |
An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes. |
Comments
This function will retrieve the attributes of the "Modality LUT Module" and store their values in the structure pointed to by pModalityLUTAttributes.
pModalityLUTAttributes->uStructSize will be set to the value of the parameter uStructSize.
If the function doesnt find any of the attributes of the "Modality LUT Module" it will set both pModalityLUTAttributes->bIsModalityLUTSequence and
pModalityLUTAttributes->bIsRescaleSlopeIntercept to FALSE. In this case the rest of the members of the pModalityLUTAttributes structure are undefined.
If the function finds the "Rescale Intercept" (0028,1052) and "Rescale Slope" (0028,1053) elements, it will set pModalityLUTAttributes->bIsRescaleSlopeIntercept to TRUE and populate pModalityLUTAttributes->RescaleIntercept, pModalityLUTAttributes->RescaleSlope and pModalityLUTAttributes->szRescaleType with the values retrieved from the DICOM dataset.
If the function finds "Modality LUT Sequence" (0028,3000), it will set pModalityLUTAttributes->bIsModalityLUTSequence to TRUE and populate pModalityLUTAttributes->LUTDescriptor, pModalityLUTAttributes->pszLUTExplanation and pModalityLUTAttributes->szModalityLUTType with the values retrieved from the DICOM dataset.
It is prohibited by the DICOM standard for both "Rescale Intercept" and "Modality LUT Sequence" to exist in the same DICOM dataset. However if this function encounters such a dataset, it will ignore "Modality LUT Sequence" and assume that only "Rescale Intercept" exists.
