Hi,
I'm working with some clinical DICOMs which appear to have their image data compressed with a RLE lossless algorithm. I need to decompress these images.
When I run into jpeg compression, I can use the "dcmdjpeg" function. The "dcmdjpeg" function doesn't work on the RLE-compressed files, naturally.
I can't find an equivalent function for RLE-lossless decompression. Does anybody know of one?
Thanks, Nathaniel
Hi Nathaniel
yes, there is a dcmdrle utility you can use (thanks to Thomas Witzel for pointing this out to me)
