LDicomDS::SetModalityLUT

#include "ltdic.h"

L_UINT16 LDicomDS::SetModalityLUT(pModalityLUTAttributes, pLUTData, uDataSize, uFlags)

pDICOMMLUTATTRIBS pModalityLUTAttributes;	/* pointer to a Modality LUT attributes structure */
L_UINT16 *pLUTData;	/* pointer to the input buffer */
L_UINT uDataSize;	/* size of the input buffer */
L_UINT uFlags;	/* reserved for future use */

Sets the attributes that describe the Modality LUT.

Parameter	Description
pModalityLUTAttributes	Pointer to a structure containing the Modality LUT attributes to set.
pLUTData	Pointer to the buffer that holds the "LUT Data" to set. Pass NULL if you are not trying to set the "LUT Data" (0028,3006) under the "Modality LUT Sequence" (0028,3000).
uDataSize	Size of the buffer pointed to by pLUTData. Pass 0 if pLUTData is set to NULL.
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 set the attributes of the "Modality LUT Module". Before calling this function, initialize pModalityLUTAttributes->uStructSize to be sizeof(DICOMMLUTATTRIBS) and initialize all the attributes which you are changing.

If you are trying to set the "Rescale Intercept" (0028,1052) and "Rescale Slope" (0028,1053), set pModalityLUTAttributes->bIsRescaleSlopeIntercept to TRUE and populate pModalityLUTAttributes->RescaleIntercept, pModalityLUTAttributes->RescaleSlope with the new values. You can also populate pModalityLUTAttributes->szRescaleType if you want to set "Rescale Type" (0028,1054).

If you are trying to set the elements under "Modality LUT Sequence", set pModalityLUTAttributes->bIsModalityLUTSequence to TRUE and populate

pModalityLUTAttributes->LUTDescriptor and pModalityLUTAttributes->szModalityLUTType .In this case pLUTData should point to the "LUT Data" (0028,3006) buffer.

This function will return an error if both pModalityLUTAttributes->bIsRescaleSlopeIntercept and pModalityLUTAttributes->bIsModalityLUTSequence are set to TRUE. It will also return an error if pModalityLUTAttributes->bIsModalityLUTSequence is set to TRUE and you pass NULL for pLUTData or 0 for uDataSize.
