'Usage
Dim instance As IDICOMObjectRetrieve
Dim sopInstanceUID As String
Dim frameNumber As Integer
Dim imageWidth As Integer
Dim imageHeight As Integer
Dim mimeType As String
Dim bitsPerPixel As Integer
Dim qualityFactor As Integer
Dim extraData As String
Dim value() As Byte
value = instance.GetImage(sopInstanceUID, frameNumber, imageWidth, imageHeight, mimeType, bitsPerPixel, qualityFactor, extraData)
Parameters
- sopInstanceUID
-
The SOP Instance UID of the DICOM object.
- frameNumber
-
The 1-based number of the frame to be retrieved.
Pass 0 to get a representative frame and -1 to get the entire image with all frames.
- imageWidth
-
The width, in pixels, of the image. The returned image may have a different width to preserve scale ratio.
- imageHeight
-
The Height, in pixels, of the image. The returned image may have a different height to preserve scale ratio.
- mimeType
- A System.String representing the file format and compression of the image. Check the Leadtools.Dicom.Services.DataTypes.SupportedImageFormat class for supported file formats and compression.
- bitsPerPixel
-
Resulting image's pixel depth. Note that not all bits per pixel are available to all image formats.
If bitsPerPixel is 0, the image will be stored using the original or closest bits/pixel value supported by that format.
- qualityFactor
-
The quality factor (Q factor) is a number that determines the degree of loss in the compression process. Use 0 for Lossless compression or you can set a value from 2 to 255, where 2 is the highest quality and 255 is the most compression.
- extraData
-
User custom data.
Return Value
A buffer containing the image file (e.g. JPEG and TIFF).
