Detailed Description

Creates and composes a DICOM structured report and exports it to different file formats or fields. It derives the generic DICOM save functionality from DicomSaveBase.

The module class provides the following features:

  • Inheriting DICOM information from input sources such as ML images, DICOM files, or a DirectDicomImport module.
  • Composition of a small set of sections with selectable code meanings.
  • Replacement of placeholders for DICOM tags, image information to insert information from other sources into the generated document.
  • Exporting the document to HTML and XML fields (shown in the GUI), and to selectable file formats such as .dcm, .html, and .xml.

Most functionality available from the used dcmtk class is provided except of

  • digitally signing the document,
  • user controlled creation or setting Series-, SOPInstance- or StudyUIDs,
  • other character sets than the default ones created by the dcmtk document, and
  • the currently used codes and meanings are taken from dcmtk examples, and no verification dictionaries or verification itself is performed on the generated document.
