The dcm4che 2 toolkit is deprecated, please use the dcm4che 5 Toolkit & Li= brary instead.
Download the toolkit from the SourceForge website: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dcm4che/files/dcm4che2/= p>
dcm4che2 is a high performance, open source implementation of the DICOM = standard. It is developed in the Java programming language. Version 2.x of = this toolkit (which is what this wiki space covers) is the next generation = of the popular dcm4che-1.x DICOM toolkit. The toolkit has undergone a re-arc= hitecting with improvement over the 1.x version in the areas of speed, memo= ry usage, simplicity, and a more robust DICOM dictionary implementation.
You'll often see the dcm4che-2.x DICOM toolkit referred to by a shorter = notation: dcm4che2 or just the toolkit
The best way to get started with the toolkit is to use, and examine the = code of, the sample applications referenced below. These are full featured = applications that can be used in a stand-alone fashion, and demonstrate the= capabilities of the toolkit.
The dcm4che2 toolkit implements the DICOM standard. As such, it is = beneficial to the user that they have a good understanding of that standard= .
These references may be out of date!
The most accurate reference for the tools is within the tools themselves= . After downloading the toolkit, run the tool you're interested in with no = arguments to see all of the available parameters and examples.
dcm4che2 contains a number of useful sample applications that may be use= d in conjunction with dcm4chee, with another archive application, or to oper= ate on DICOM objects in a standalone fashion. The utilities are a gre= at place to get started with the toolkit. They're useful by themselves, and= the code can be very helpful if you are interested in writing your own DIC= OM applications. They demonstrate most of the operations that you will have= need of.
