NAME

6       dcmftest - Test if file uses DICOM part 10 format
7

SYNOPSIS

9       dcmftest file...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The  dcmftest utility checks whether the files specified on the command
13       line are DICOM files in part 10 format (with meta-header).
14

PARAMETERS

16       dcmfile-in  DICOM input filename to be dumped
17

NOTES

19       All files specified on the command line are checked for the presence of
20       the  DICOM 'magic word' 'DICM' at byte position 128. No attempt is made
21       to parse the complete data set.  For  each  file  the  test  result  is
22       printed   to   stdout   in   the   form  'yes:  <filename>\n'  or  'no:
23       <filename>\n'. The utility terminates with a return code  corresponding
24       to the number of files found to be non-DICOM, i.e. if all files pass as
25       DICOM files, the return value is 0. This behaviour is intended for  use
26       in shell script programming.
