Improving DICOM Support
Goals
Improve the support for DICOM in ITK
- DICOM communication layer (PACS connection)
- Streaming
- Read and write RTStruct
- type checking
- minimum DICOM skeleton generation
other requests from the ITK community
handling of higher order manifold as described in DICOM standard
- Unlike a standard dicom series (located in a single directory) the DICOMDIR format spreads files across directories
- A reader that reads the DICOMDIR file and parses appropriate files & directories is desirable

how to test against PACS automatically ?
( thanks to Steve Pieper)
I had a chance to ask Lawrence Tarbox of Washington University your question about dicom testing. Lawrence is a participant in CTK and a long-time dicom standards participant too (he's actually working on the hosted application specification, which we should ultimately be compatible with). For PACS-like testing, he pointed to two well established efforts, linked below. Lawrence knows people involved in these and thinks they might be receptive to seeing integration with ctest and cdash if you want to pursue that. In any case I think we can learn a lot from these efforts. http://www.ihe.net/Connectathon/ (look for the MESA test suite) http://www.dvtk.org/
