'Declaration
 

<ExtensionAttribute()>
Public Overloads Shared Sub SaveJson( _

'Usage
 

Dim ds As DicomDataSet

DicomExtensions.SaveJson(ds, fileName, jsonFlags)

static void SaveJson( 
   DicomDataSet^ ds,
   String^ fileName,
   DicomDataSetSaveJsonFlags jsonFlags
) 

Parameters

ds

The contents of this data set to be saved

fileName

The name of the output JSON file.

jsonFlags

Flags that affect how binary data and other information is saved in the JSON output file.

Use this method to export a DicomDataSet as human-readable JSON file. By default, all binary data is using BulkDataUri with dummy URIs, but this behavior can be modified by passing appropriate DicomDataSetSaveJsonFlags

The output JSON format is the DICOM JSON Model defined in the DICOM specification in PS3.18.F.

Note: When saving the pixel data of multi-page compressed files to JSON, only the first frame is saved. This is because of the restriction specified in PS3.18.F.2.7 that states "There is a single InlineBinary value representing the entire Value Field, and not one per Value".

This example loads a sample DICOM file, and saves the contents as a JSON file, where the binary data is exported as InlineBinary base64
