Remarks

This method will set the attributes of the "Modality LUT Module".

If you are trying to set the "Rescale Intercept" (0028,1052) and "Rescale Slope" (0028,1053), set DicomModalityLutAttributes.IsRescaleSlopeIntercept to true, and populate DicomModalityLutAttributes.RescaleIntercept and DicomModalityLutAttributes.RescaleSlope with the new values. You can also populate DicomModalityLutAttributes.RescaleType if you want to set "Rescale Type" (0028,1054).

If you are trying to set the elements under "Modality LUT Sequence", set DicomModalityLutAttributes.IsModalityLutSequence to true, and populate DicomModalityLutAttributes.FirstStoredPixelValueMapped, DicomModalityLutAttributes.NumberOfEntries, DicomModalityLutAttributes.EntryBits, and DicomModalityLutAttributes.LutType. In this case, data should hold the "LUT Data" (0028,3006).


The Multi-frame Functional Groups module may have a Shared Functional Groups Sequence item, and/or a Per-frame Functional Groups Sequence item. Either of these items may have a Pixel Value Transformation Sequence (0028,9145) item. The flags parameter can be used to add or modify existing information in the Pixel Value Transformation Sequence.

The following flags are used only if the Pixel Value Transformation Sequence does not already exist.
    The specific elements that are read or updated when using these flags are shown below:

    (0028,9145) Pixel Value Transformation Sequence child elements
    Tag Name
    (0028,1052) Rescale Intercept
    (0028,1053) Rescale Slope
    (0028,1054) Rescale Type


    For a detailed discussion on Multi-frame Functional Groups see the topic Multi-frame Functional Groups.
