The MedCon library is intended for easy use of read/write routines for the various medical image formats. Our main test format is Ecat 6.4. The FILEINFO structure holds all the interesting data and pointers to the images. A fast introduction ...
MdcInit(), MdcFinish()
The very first and very last function to call when using this library. Currently changes occur to the signal handler for floating point exceptions and the program's locale.
MdcHandleArgs()
Parser for the command-line arguments. Last function argument determines the maximum of input files allowed. The absolute maximum is MDC_MAX_FILES defined in the library.
MdcPrintUsage()
Prints possible MedCon command-line options and terminates the program.
MdcOpenFile()
Initializes FILEINFO struct and opens the file with or without decompression.
MdcReadFile()
Reads the (decompressed) file with format autodetection or by trying a fallback format, initializes a (grayscale) colormap and does the obligated pixel handling. The last argument enables the use of an external read function.
MdcWriteFile()
Writes a file in the supplied format. Last argument is a number used in the prefix of the output filename. Give a negative value when a personal prefix was prepared. The last argument enables the use of an external write function.
MdcCloseFile()
Closes the file and sets the pointer to NULL.
MdcInitFI()
Initializes the FILEINFO structure.
MdcFreeIDs()
Cleans the IMG_DATA structures by freeing all allocated memory.
MdcCleanUpFI()
Cleans the FILEINFO structure. The routine makes use of FreeIDs().
MdcResetIDs()
Resets the IMG_DATA structures. This is necessary after each conversion.
MdcPrintFI()
Prints the content of the FILEINFO structure. Useful for debug purposes.
MdcSplitPath()
Splits the path in a string pointer to directory and filename.
MdcGetFrmt()
Checks the format of the file. For the return value, see the representation of the supported formats under the section `Important Defines'. With the INTERACTIVE variable ON, the function returns F_RAW; see also ReadRaw().
MdcGetColorMap()
Fills a 256 byte RGB palette with the requested grayscale colormap.
MdcImagesPixelFiddle()
Performs all the pixel by pixel processes such as swapping bytes, make positive values, quantification, rescaling, filling the FILEINFO structure with global & image variables and check some important parameters. This function is required after a file was read!
MdcPrntMesg()
Prints a message. Argument is a variable parameter list.
MdcPrntWarn()
Prints a warning. Argument is a variable parameter list.
MdcPrntErr()
Prints an error and quits the program. The first argument is the error code.
MdcReadRAW() - MdcWriteRAW()
Reads files of an unknown format interactively and writes raw image arrays with out headers. ReadInterActive() is an alias for MdcReadRAW().
MdcReadGIF() - MdcWriteGIF()
Reads GIF87a & GIF89a, writes annimated GIF89a files.
MdcReadACR() - MdcWriteACR()
Reads and writes Acr/Nema files.
MdcReadINW() - MdcWriteINW()
Reads and writes RUG INW files.
MdcReadECAT6(), MdcReadECAT7() - MdcWriteECAT6()
Reads ECAT 6 (resp. 7). Writes ECAT 6.4 files.
MdcReadINTF() - MdcWriteINTF()
Reads and writes Interfile 3.3 files.
MdcReadANLZ() - MdcWriteANLZ()
Reads and writes Analyze (SPM) files.
MdcReadDICM() - MdcWriteDICM()
Reads DICOM files. Writes DICOM files.
MdcReadPNG() - MdcWritePNG()
Reads PNG files. Writes PNG files.
MdcReadCONC() - MdcWriteCONC()
Reads and writes Concorde microPET.
MdcReadNIFTI() - MdcWriteNIFTI()
Reads and writes NIH's NIfTI files.
A sample C-source code to show the usage of the functions. Please, look into the project source code for more details.
