NAME
dcdirdmp - ACR/NEMA DICOM PS3 ... DICOM PS3 - Describe DICOMDIR content
SYNOPSIS
dcdirdmp [ -v|verbose|vv|veryverbose ] [ -showrecordinfo ] [ -description ] [ -p|paths ] [
-filename ]
DESCRIPTION
dcdirdmp reads the named dicom input file and interprets it as a DICOMDIR file, that is a
DICOM file containing an instance of the Basic Directory IOD.
If the file contains a valid instance of the directory, the hierarchical record structure
is traversed and displayed in a depth first manner. The default output displays selected
attribute values for recognized types of directory record, including the Referenced File
ID. The verbose options increase the amount of information dumped.
Note that directory record offset values within attributes are in bytes from the start of
the file (including meta-information header and pre-amble) and these point to the
beginning of the Item delimiter that introduces each item in the directory record
sequence. The offset values displayed in the verbose output for the first attribute of
each sequence item will therefore be 8 bytes greater, as the Item delimiter itself is not
displayed.
OPTIONS
The description and verbose output go to standard error.
Binary attributes are written in hexadecimal with a preceding "0x". Numeric string
attributes are written in decimal. Attribute values are displayed in hexadecimal or string
format as determined by the value representation.
The basic input switches are described in dcintro(1). Options specific to this program
are:
-v|verbose
Display all attributes in each directory record.
-vv|veryverbose
Display byte offset from file start and message start, in hexadecimal, and dump
contents while reading and once read.
-showrecordinfo
Display byte offset with each directory record entry, in hexadecimal.
-description
Display the Study and Series Description attribute values.
-p|paths
Show Unix style path information for each referenced file only (suppresses normal
output). Used, for example, to feed paths as command line arguments to some other
utility.
-filename
Show the name of the file supplied in the arguments; a hyphen will be reported if
no filename was supplied.
