The command line option dictate the type of operation(s) gdcmpap3 will use to generate the output file. file-in DICOM input filename file-out DICOM output filename -i --input DICOM filename -o --output DICOM filename -S --split Split multiframes PAPYRUS 3.0 into multiples DICOM files --decomp-pap3 Use PAPYRUS 3.0 for decompressing (can be combined with --split). --check-iop Check that the Image Orientation (Patient) Attribute is ok (see --split). -h --help print this help text and exit -v --version print version information and exit -V --verbose verbose mode (warning+error). -W --warning warning mode, print warning information -E --error error mode, print error information -D --debug debug mode, print debug information GDCM_ROOT_UID Root UID gdcmpap3 is a great tool to convert broken PAPYRUS 3.0 implementation into properly parsable DICOM file. Usage is simply: $ gdcmpap3 input.pa3 output.dcm or if you prefer being explicit: $ gdcmpap3 -i input.pa3 -o output.dcm Even though gdcmpap3 can overwrite directly on the same file (input.pa3 = output.dcm), it is recommended that user should first convert into a different file to make sure the bug is properly handled by GDCM. gdcmdump(1), gdcmconv(1), gdcminfo(1)
