dcmdjpls: Decode JPEG-LS compressed DICOM file
usage: dcmdjpls [options] dcmfile-in dcmfile-out
parameters:
dcmfile-in DICOM input filename to be converted
("-" for stdin)
dcmfile-out DICOM output filename
("-" for stdout)
general options:
-h --help print this help text and exit
--version print version information and exit
--arguments print expanded command line arguments
-q --quiet quiet mode, print no warnings and errors
-v --verbose verbose mode, print processing details
-d --debug debug mode, print debug information
-ll --log-level [l]evel: string constant
(fatal, error, warn, info, debug, trace)
use level l for the logger
-lc --log-config [f]ilename: string
use config file f for the logger
input options:
input file format:
+f --read-file read file format or data set (default)
+fo --read-file-only read file format only
-f --read-dataset read data set without file meta information
processing options:
planar configuration:
+pr --planar-restore restore original planar configuration (default)
+pa --planar-auto automatically determine planar configuration
from SOP class and color space
+px --color-by-pixel always store color-by-pixel
+pl --color-by-plane always store color-by-plane
SOP Instance UID:
+ud --uid-default keep same SOP Instance UID (default)
+ua --uid-always always assign new UID
workaround options for incorrect JPEG-LS encodings:
+wi --workaround-incpl enable workaround for incomplete JPEG-LS data
other processing options:
+io --ignore-offsettable ignore offset table when decompressing
output options:
output file format:
+F --write-file write file format (default)
-F --write-dataset write data set without file meta information
output transfer syntax:
+te --write-xfer-little write with explicit VR little endian (default)
+tb --write-xfer-big write with explicit VR big endian TS
+ti --write-xfer-implicit write with implicit VR little endian TS
post-1993 value representations:
+u --enable-new-vr enable support for new VRs (UN/UT) (default)
-u --disable-new-vr disable support for new VRs, convert to OB
group length encoding:
+g= --group-length-recalc recalculate group lengths if present (default)
+g --group-length-create always write with group length elements
-g --group-length-remove always write without group length elements
length encoding in sequences and items:
+e --length-explicit write with explicit lengths (default)
-e --length-undefined write with undefined lengths
data set trailing padding (not with --write-dataset):
-p= --padding-retain do not change padding (default)
-p --padding-off no padding (implicit if --write-dataset)
+p --padding-create [f]ile-pad [i]tem-pad: integer
align file on multiple of f bytes
and items on multiple of i bytes
