Unified layout. Revisit links https.
The {{Forge|dicom}} package is part of the [[Octave Forge]] project. The package is at an early development stage and it is maintained by Andy Buckle with contributions by Judd Storrs and Kris Thielemans.
===Supporting library===
== What is the aim of this package? ==
[http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/gdcm/index.php?title=Main_Page GCDM]. You can usually get this via your package manager,e e.g. on Ubuntu
Digital communications in medicine (DICOM) is an information standard. Originally created for image transfer, the standard now deals with an large range of medical data. See http://medical.nema.org/ for more info.
This package provides functions to read and (eventually) write DICOM files. The functions in the package are intended to have similar usage as
the dicom functions in the Matlab Image Processing Toolbox. In Octave they are separate: most image package users will not use dicom, and its dependency might be considered troublesome.
== Platforms ==
{{Warning|The information of this section needs be reviewed (June 2019).}}
*Linux. Tested on OpenSuSE 11.4 and Ubuntu. No known issues. GDCM is required: see below.
*mingw
**Ben Lindner's Octave 3.2.4 and the mingw build environment (gcc 4.4.0): dicom package 0.1.1 does not build against this older version of the Octave API.
**Tatsuro/Nitzan's Octave 3.4.3 and mingw build environment (gcc 4.5.2): gdcm and dicom package build OK. Get segfault in ntdll.dll when one of the dicom*.oct files calls something from a gdcm*.dll.
**mxe-octave: dicom and gdcm distributed as part of the installed package.
*Cygwin: Panic when oct file called (or maybe when oct file uses gdcm dll). Need to try rebaseall

Alternatively, build it yourself. Get the source with subversion.

cmake and g++ are required. create a gdcmbin directory parallel to the gdcm-2-0 directory. Change to gdcmbin and then run cmake (Linux/cygwin).

===Features===
On Cygwin gdcm 2.0.18 (and maybe some other versions) may have a problem with newer cmake. This kludge persuades cmake to define WIN32.
cmake -DGDCM_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++.exe -DCMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32=1 ../gdcm-2.0.18/

All of these still need work, but they exist, and are usable to some extent.

==Questions==
I don't have a Matlab license available. I would like to make this package compatible with the dicom functions in Matlab's image processing toolbox, as far as possible.

*dicominfo: Items in sequences are not necessarily the same, so are stored as nested structs like dcm.RTDoseROISequence.Item_1.DoseUnits(as Matlab)
*What does dicominfo do when a tag is not in its dictionary? Answer: assign to a field like Private_3243_0010 (as Matlab)
