|
uFlags |
Flags which control the behaviour of this function. Possible values are: |
|
|
|
Value |
Meaning |
|
|
DICOM_SETIMAGE_AUTO_SET_VOI_LUT |
[0x0002]If set, the function will automatically add a VOI LUT to the dataset. |
|
|
DICOM_SETIMAGE_MINIMIZE_JPEG_SIZE |
[0x0004] If set, and the nCompression parameter is IMAGE_COMPRESSION_JPEG_LOSSLESS or IMAGE_COMPRESSION_JPEG_LOSSY, the JPEG compression engine will use optimized Huffman tables, which results in better compression, but slower speed. |
|
|
DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG_OVERWRITE_SHARED |
[0x0008] If set, existing elements under the Shared Functional Groups Sequence will be overwritten. If this flag is not included, Shared Functional Groups Sequence elements are unchanged. |
|
|
DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG_VOI_LUT_PER_FRAME |

DICOM_SETIMAGE_YBR_FULL |
[0x00000100] This flag is valid only for color images, and if nCompression is one of the following:
It is ignored for all other transfer syntax values. If set, this converts the RGB image data to YCbCr, which is one luminance (Y) and two chrominance planes (CB and CR). |
Returns
|
DICOM_SUCCESS |
The function was successful. |
|
>0 |
An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes. |
Comments
As an example, if you wish to insert 50 images starting with the 50th frame in the Pixel Data, call this function with nIndex set to 49 (the 50th frame in a zero-based index) and the 50 frames you wish to insert in hList.
Most DICOM files will only have one Data Element of type TAG_PIXEL_DATA. Therefore, in most instances you can set pElement to NULL, since the function will automatically insert the images into the only Pixel Data Element in the file. If pElement is not NULL, it must point to the Pixel Data Element itself.
If the DICOM file is CLASS_BASIC_DIRECTORY, the file may contain more than one Pixel Data Element. In this case you must specify in pElement the Pixel Data Element in which to insert the images.
For a table of possible Compression, Photometric, BitsPerPixel, and Quality Factor combinations, refer to Compression Table.
For more options when using the JPEG 2000 compression, refer to L_DicomSetJ2KOptions.

This function is indifferent to the pixel data restrictions imposed by the various DICOM IOD classes, for example this function will allow the user to insert a colored image into a "Digital X-Ray Image Storage" dataset.
This function will always insert a "Number of Frames" (0028, 0008) element and set its value.
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, or a Frame VOI LUT Sequence (0028,9132) item. The five DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG flags can be used to add or modify existing information in the Pixel Value Transformation Sequence or the Frame VOI LUT Sequence.
The following flags are used only if the corresponding sequence (Frame VOI LUT Sequence or Pixel Value Transformation Sequence) does not already exist.
DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG_VOI_LUT_PER_FRAME
DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG_VOI_LUT_SHARED
DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG_MODALITY_LUT_PER_FRAME
DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG_MODALITY_LUT_SHARED
In this case, the sequence is placed in the sequence indicated by the flag (Per-frame Functional Groups Sequence or Shared Functional Groups Sequence).
If a Frame VOI LUT Sequence or a Pixel Value Transformation Sequence already exists in a DICOM dataset, the four above flags are ignored, and the sequence is placed in the location where sequences already exist.
For a detailed discussion on Multi-frame Functional Groups and how the DICOM_SET_IMAGE_MFG flags are used, see the topic Multi-frame Functional Groups.
Note:
DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG_VOI_LUT_PER_FRAME cannot be combined with DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG_VOI_LUT_SHARED.
DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG_MODALITY_LUT_PER_FRAME cannot be combined with DICOM_SETIMAGE_MFG_MODALITY_LUT_SHARED.
Note that the only valid values are for nPhotometric are:
IMAGE_PHOTOMETRIC_MONOCHROME2 (gray)
IMAGE_PHOTOMETRIC_PALETTE_COLOR (palletized)
IMAGE_PHOTOMETRIC_RGB (Color)
All other values are ignored.
The nPhotometric parameter is used as an indicator as how the data image data will be saved: gray, color, or palletized. The nPhotometric parameter is NOT necessarily going to be the final value of the Photometric Interpretation that is stored in the resulting DICOM dataset. The resulting Photometric Interpretation in the DICOM dataset is set automatically, based on the compression type, flags, and QFactor. The table below gives examples of the resulting DICOM dataset Photometric Interpretation, based on various input parameters:
