NAME

OrthancWSIDicomizer - Whole-slide imaging support for Orthanc

SYNOPSIS

OrthancWSIDicomizer [OPTION]... [INPUT]

DESCRIPTION

Orthanc, lightweight, RESTful DICOM server for healthcare and medical research.

Create a DICOM file from a digital pathology image.

Generic options:

Display this help and exit
Output version information and exit
Be verbose in logs
Number of processing threads to be used
Path to the shared library of OpenSlide (not necessary if converting from standard hierarchical TIFF)

Options for the source image:

Path to a JSON file containing the DICOM dataset
Display a minimalistic sample DICOM dataset in JSON format, then exit
Whether to re-encode each tile (no transcoding, much slower) (Boolean)
Whether to repaint the background of the image (Boolean)
Color of the background (e.g. "255,0,0")

Options to construct the pyramid:

Reconstruct the full pyramid (slow) (Boolean)
Apply smoothing when reconstructing the pyramid (slower, but higher quality) (Boolean)
Number of levels in the target pyramid

Options for the target image:

Width of the tiles in the target image
Height of the tiles in the target image
Compression of the target image ("none", "jpeg" or "jpeg2000")
Set quality level for JPEG (0..100)
Maximum size per DICOM instance (in MB), 0 means no limit on the file size
Folder where to store the output DICOM instances
Pattern for the files in the output folder
http://localhost:8042/)
URL to the REST API of the target Orthanc server

Description of the imaged volume:

Width of the specimen (in mm)
Height of the specimen (in mm)
Depth of the specimen (in mm)
X offset the specimen, wrt. slide coordinates origin (in mm)
Y offset the specimen, wrt. slide coordinates origin (in mm)

HTTP/HTTPS client configuration to access the Orthanc REST API:

Username for the target Orthanc server
Password for the target Orthanc server
HTTP proxy to be used
HTTP timeout (in seconds, 0 means no timeout)
Enable the verification of the peers during HTTPS requests
Path to the CA (certification authority) certificates to validate peers in HTTPS requests

Advanced options:

Optical path to be automatically added to the DICOM dataset ("none" or "brightfield")
Path to the ICC profile to be included. If empty, a default sRGB profile will be added.
Whether to do additional checks to verify the source image is supported (might slow down) (Boolean)
Number of pyramid levels up to which multithreading should be applied (only for performance/memory tuning)
