mudicom's Introduction

mudicom

A light-weight python package that validates, reads, and extracts images from a DICOM file.

Requirements

Base:

Python <= 2.7 (Should work with Python 3 but I haven't tested it)
GDCM with python wrapper (http://mudicom.dcmdb.org/install.html)

Validator:

dicom3tools (http://www.dclunie.com/dicom3tools.html)

Image:

numpy (http://www.numpy.org/)
PIL (https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow); or
Matplotlib (http://matplotlib.org/)

Quick How To

import mudicom
mu = mudicom.load("mudicom/tests/dicoms/ex1.dcm")

# returns array of data elements as dicts
mu.read()

# returns dict of errors and warnings for DICOM
mu.validate()

# basic anonymization
mu.anonymize()
# save anonymization
mu.save_as("dicom.dcm")

# creates image object
img = mu.image # before v0.1.0 this was mu.image()
# returns numpy array
img.numpy # before v0.1.0 this was mu.numpy()

# using Pillow, saves DICOM image
img.save_as_pil("ex1.jpg")
# using matplotlib, saves DICOM image
img.save_as_plt("ex1_2.jpg")

Documentation

Full documentation is available at http://mudicom.dcmdb.org/

Roadmap

Extract multiple images from one single DICOM file
Detect corrupted DICOM files
Ability to anonymize DICOM file
Ability to set data elements

mudicom's Issues

no _gdcmswig.so

used apt-get install python-gdcm and see gdcm.py, gdcmswig.py and lsb_release.py but no _gdcmswig.so

issue in image.py in calling self.numpy()

Hi,
This is my code..

import mudicom
mu = mudicom.load("test.dcm")
img=mu.image
img.save_as_pil("test.jpg")
Error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "/home/user1/venv/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mudicom/image.py", line 122, in save_as_pil
pixel_array = self.numpy()
TypeError: 'numpy.ndarray' object is not callable

If I change the self.numpy() to self.numpy then all works fine.

Does it need to be fixed or if I am doing anything wrong? Thanks..
