DCMTK hands on example:

• We download the following DICOM images:
  • DicomImage1.dcm DicomImage2.dcm
• Then we try to open the images with ImageMagick (→ display) and Gimp (→ gimp). What problems may arise?
• Now we download DCMTK and install the package:
  • We use the 3.6.7 release for Ubuntu 16.04 to 20.04:
    • http://dicom.offis.de/download/dcmtk/dcmtk367/dcmtk-3.6.7.tar.gz
  • We use CMake to build and install the library:
    • cmake -DDCMTK_ENABLE_CHARSET_CONVERSION=OFF -DDCMTK_WITH_ICU=OFF -DDCMTK_WITH_ICONV=OFF . && make && sudo make install
• Then we finally try the “dcmdump” tool with the DICOM images.
