DCSORT(1) DICOM PS3 - Make sorted list of images DCSORT(1) NAME
dcsort - ACR/NEMA DICOM PS3 ... DICOM PS3 - Make sorted list of images SYNOPSIS
dcsort " inputfile1 [ inputfile2 ... ]" [ -v|verbose ] [ -vv|veryverbose ] [ -vvv|veryveryverbose ] [ -index ] [ -show ] [ -interval ] [ -tolerance mm ] [ -check ] [ -checkFoR ] [ -descending ] [ -sortby|k attributename ] DESCRIPTION
dcsort reads the named dicom input files and sorts them by the specified sort key. The sort key should be a single valued numeric attribute, with the exception of ImageOrientationPatient and ImagePositionPatient which are handled as special cases. There is no output by default unless the index or verbose options are specified. OPTIONS
The output and errors go to standard error. The basic input switches are described in dcintro(1). Options specific to this program are: -index Creates a first column of output that is the index in the sort order, starting from 0, and a second column that is the filename. -show Show the value of the sort key after the file name with the -index option -interval Show the interval between values of the sort key, or an error if not equal -tolerance mm The tolerance value in mm to use when comparing intervals between slices; defaults to +/- 0.01 mm if unspecified -check Check that all the images are from the same series. -checkFoR Check that all the images have the same Frame of Reference (UID). -descending Sort in descending, rather than the default ascending, order. -sortby|k attributename Specify attributename as the sort key. ENVIRONMENT
EXAMPLES
% dcsort -index -sortby SliceLocation ./1/[0-9]* 0 ./1/1 1 ./1/2 FILES

DCSTATS(1) DICOM PS3 - DICOM image statistics DCSTATS(1) NAME
dcstats - ACR/NEMA DICOM PS3 ... DICOM PS3 - DICOM image statistics SYNOPSIS
dcstats [ -v|verbose ] [ -filename ] DESCRIPTION
dcstats reads the named dicom or acr-nema input file and describes the statistics of the image pixel data. The primary intent is to deter- mine if the pixel representation is unsigned or signed (regardless of what other attributes may specify). The description and verbose output go to standard error. The basic input switches are described in dcintro(1). Options specific to this program are: -v|verbose Display byte offset from file start and message start, in hexadecimal, and dump contents while reading and once read. -filename Show the name of the file supplied in the arguments; a hyphen will be reported if no filename was supplied. -filename Show the name of the file supplied in the arguments; a hyphen will be reported if no filename was supplied. ENVIRONMENT
EXAMPLES
% dcstats expmeta.dc3 Signed minimum value = 0x0 (0 dec) Signed maximum value = 0x6e9 (1769 dec) Unsigned minimum value = 0x0 (0 dec) Unsigned maximum value = 0x6e9 (1769 dec) Signed range = 0x6e9 (1769 dec) Unsigned range = 0x6e9 (1769 dec) Signed mean = 0x158 (344 dec) (19.446%) Unsigned mean = 0x158 (344 dec) (19.446%) Bits Stored = 16 Significant unsigned bits = 11 % dcstats impnone.dc3 Signed minimum value = 0xfa24 (64036 dec) Signed maximum value = 0x638 (1592 dec) Unsigned minimum value = 0x0 (0 dec) Unsigned maximum value = 0xffff (65535 dec) Signed range = 0xc14 (3092 dec) Unsigned range = 0xffff (65535 dec) Signed mean = 0xfec2 (65218 dec) (38.2277%) Unsigned mean = 0x1cdd (7389 dec) (11.2749%) Bits Stored = 16 Significant positive bits = 11 Significant negative bits = 11 Offset to make unsigned in hex is = 0x5dc Offset to make unsigned in dec is = 1500 FILES
