Parameter

Description

hDS

A DICOM handle.

pElement

Pointer to a DICOMELEMENT structure within the Data Set.

hList

Handle to the list of images.

nIndex

Position of the first frame to get. Use zero-based indexing. For example, if there are 10 images in a list, the index of the last one is 9. To get the last image in the Pixel Data element, use ELEMENT_INDEX_MAX.

nCount

Number of frames to load into the image list.

nBitsPerPixel

Resulting image pixel depth. Possible values are:

Value

Meaning

0

Keep the original file's pixel depth (Do not convert).

1 to 8

The specified bits per pixel in the resulting image

12

12 bits per pixel in the resulting image.

16

16 bits per pixel in the resulting image

24

24 bits per pixel in the resulting image

32

32 bits per pixel in the resulting image

uFlags

Flags which control the behavior of this function. Possible values are:

Value

Meaning

DICOM_GETIMAGE_AUTO_LOAD_OVERLAYS

[0x0001] If set, the function will automatically extract the overlays included in the dataset and add them to the loaded image.

DICOM_GETIMAGE_AUTO_APPLY_MODALITY_LUT

[0x0002] If set, the function will automatically apply the "Modality LUT" when loading the image.

DICOM_GETIMAGE_AUTO_APPLY_VOI_LUT

[0x0004] If set, the function will automatically apply the "VOI LUT" when loading the image.

DICOM_GETIMAGE_ALLOW_RANGE_EXPANSION

[0x0008] (Deprecated, do not use) If set, the function will adjust the high bit and/or low bit (if possible) inside the image handle in order to hold the range of pixel values after applying the modality LUT.

DICOM_GETIMAGE_AUTO_SCALE_MODALITY_LUT

[0x0010] If set, the function will scale the resulting pixel data to fit within the range of 0 to 2^BitsPerPixel-1 (when any of the values exceed that range).

DICOM_GETIMAGE_AUTO_SCALE_VOI_LUT

[0x0020] Only used in conjunction with DICOM_GETIMAGE_AUTO_SCALE_MODALITY_LUT. If set, the function will rescale the VOI LUT to match the rescale that was performed by DICOM_GETIMAGE_AUTO_SCALE_MODALITY_LUT.

DICOM_GETIMAGE_AUTODETECT_INVALID_RLE_COMPRESSION

[0x0040] For RLE compressed, automatically detects whether the MSB and LSB segments are written in the incorrect order.

pfnCallback

Callback Function for additional processing. Use the function pointer as the value of this parameter.

The callback function must adhere to the function prototype described in the GETIMAGECALLBACK function.

pUserData

Void pointer that you can use to pass one or more additional parameters that the callback function needs.

To use this feature, assign a value to a variable or create a structure that contains as many fields as you need. Then, in this parameter, pass the address of that variable or structure, casting it to L_VOID *. The callback function, which receives the address in its own pUserData parameter, can cast it to a pointer of the appropriate data type to access your variable or structure. If additional parameters are not needed, you can pass NULL in this parameter.

DICOM_SUCCESS

The function was successful.

>0

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.
