MLDirectDicomImport Overview

MLDirectDicomImport Class Library

The MLDirectDicomImport project is dedicated to import DICOM files, but also other image files types. It contains and uses many classes. Basically they are

• importers for other and DICOM files,
• volume structures describing sets of composed files or frames and lists of them (see MLMultiFileVolume Overview),
• input plugin classes for filters of imported files and frames,
• and viewing and tools classes.
  See classes beginning with the prefix "DirectDicomImport" and "MultiFileVolume" for details.
