6 dcmdjpls - Decode JPEG-LS compressed DICOM file
7
10 dcmdjpls [options] dcmfile-in dcmfile-out
11
13 The dcmdjpls utility reads a JPEG-ls compressed DICOM image (dcmfile-
14 in), decompresses the JPEG-LS data (i. e. conversion to a native DICOM
15 transfer syntax) and writes the converted image to an output file
16 (dcmfile-out).
17
19 dcmfile-in DICOM input filename to be converted
20 dcmfile-out DICOM output filename

24 general options
25 -h --help
26 print this help text and exit
27 --version
29 print version information and exit
30 --arguments
32 print expanded command line arguments
33 -q --quiet
35 quiet mode, print no warnings and errors
36 -v --verbose
38 verbose mode, print processing details
39 -d --debug
41 debug mode, print debug information
42 -ll --log-level [l]evel: string constant
44 (fatal, error, warn, info, debug, trace)
45 use level l for the logger
46 -lc --log-config [f]ilename: string

49 input options
51 input file format:
52 +f --read-file
54 read file format or data set (default)
55 +fo --read-file-only
57 read file format only
58 -f --read-dataset
60 read data set without file meta information
61 # This option allows one to decompress JPEG-LS compressed DICOM objects that have
63 # been stored as dataset without meta-header. Such a thing should not exist
64 # since the transfer syntax cannot be reliably determined without meta-header,
65 # but unfortunately it does.
66 processing options
68 planar configuration:
69 +pr --planar-restore
71 restore original planar configuration (default)
72 # If the compressed image is a color image, restore the planar
74 # configuration as described in the Planar Configuration attribute.
75 +pa --planar-auto
77 automatically determine planar configuration
78 from SOP class and color space
79 # If the compressed image is a color image, store in color-by-plane
81 # planar configuration if required by the SOP class and photometric
82 # interpretation. Hardcopy Color images are always stored color-by-
83 # plane, and the revised Ultrasound image objects are stored color-by-
84 # plane if the color model is YBR_FULL. Everything else is stored
85 # color-by-pixel.
86 +px --color-by-pixel
88 always store color-by-pixel
89 # If the compressed image is a color image, store in color-by-pixel
91 # planar configuration.
92 +pl --color-by-plane
94 always store color-by-plane
95 # If the compressed image is a color image, store in color-by-plane
97 # planar configuration.
98 SOP Instance UID:
100 +ud --uid-default
102 keep same SOP Instance UID (default)
103 # Never assigns a new SOP instance UID.
105 +ua --uid-always
107 always assign new UID
108 # Always assigns a new SOP instance UID.
110 other processing options:

150 always write with group length elements
151 -g --group-length-remove

162 data set trailing padding (not with --write-dataset):
164 -p= --padding-retain
166 do not change padding (default if not --write-dataset)

196 The level of logging output of the various command line tools and
197 underlying libraries can be specified by the user. By default, only
198 errors and warnings are written to the standard error stream. Using
199 option --verbose also informational messages like processing details
200 are reported. Option --debug can be used to get more details on the
201 internal activity, e.g. for debugging purposes. Other logging levels
202 can be selected using option --log-level. In --quiet mode only fatal
203 errors are reported. In such very severe error events, the application
204 will usually terminate. For more details on the different logging
205 levels, see documentation of module 'oflog'.
206 In case the logging output should be written to file (optionally with
208 logfile rotation), to syslog (Unix) or the event log (Windows) option
209 --log-config can be used. This configuration file also allows for
210 directing only certain messages to a particular output stream and for
211 filtering certain messages based on the module or application where
212 they are generated. An example configuration file is provided in
213 <etcdir>/logger.cfg.
214
216 All command line tools use the following notation for parameters:
217 square brackets enclose optional values (0-1), three trailing dots
218 indicate that multiple values are allowed (1-n), a combination of both
219 means 0 to n values.
220 Command line options are distinguished from parameters by a leading '+'
222 or '-' sign, respectively. Usually, order and position of command line
223 options are arbitrary (i.e. they can appear anywhere). However, if
224 options are mutually exclusive the rightmost appearance is used. This
225 behavior conforms to the standard evaluation rules of common Unix
226 shells.
227 In addition, one or more command files can be specified using an '@'
229 sign as a prefix to the filename (e.g. @command.txt). Such a command
230 argument is replaced by the content of the corresponding text file
231 (multiple whitespaces are treated as a single separator unless they
232 appear between two quotation marks) prior to any further evaluation.
233 Please note that a command file cannot contain another command file.
234 This simple but effective approach allows one to summarize common
235 combinations of options/parameters and avoids longish and confusing
236 command lines (an example is provided in file <datadir>/dumppat.txt).
237
239 The dcmdjpls utility will attempt to load DICOM data dictionaries
240 specified in the DCMDICTPATH environment variable. By default, i.e. if
241 the DCMDICTPATH environment variable is not set, the file
242 <datadir>/dicom.dic will be loaded unless the dictionary is built into
243 the application (default for Windows).
244 The default behavior should be preferred and the DCMDICTPATH
246 environment variable only used when alternative data dictionaries are
247 required. The DCMDICTPATH environment variable has the same format as
248 the Unix shell PATH variable in that a colon (':') separates entries.
249 On Windows systems, a semicolon (';') is used as a separator. The data
250 dictionary code will attempt to load each file specified in the
251 DCMDICTPATH environment variable. It is an error if no data dictionary
252 can be loaded.
