dicom-model

Provides typescript definitions for a DICOM dataset. Fields are divided in two categories:

  1. metadata
  2. bulkdata

The Metadata class contains accessors to the first category of data. The Bulkdata interface for the second.

A Dataset is a union of the two:

type Dataset = Metadata & Bulkdata;

Class generator

Due to the sheer number of DICOM fields (> 7000) it is impossible to handcraft those interfaces and any manual implementation would be impossible. Consequently, this package provides the mean to generate those classes.

In order to use that generator, first create the doT.js template of your class:

import { Dataset } from '@jdmichaud/dicom-model';

class MyDataset implements Dataset {
  {{~ it.elements :element}}
    // {{=element.prettyName }}
    {{=element.keyword}}: {{=element.returnedType}} | undefined {
      // put your code here
    }
  {{~}}
}

Then, use the provided tool to generate the class from the template:

node_modules/.bin/dicom-class-generator node_modules/@jdmichaud/dicom-model/dist/data-dictionary/data-elements.csv my-template.dotjs my-dataset.ts

The tool leverage the provided file data-element.csv which contains the list of all the currently (at the time of this writing) known public DICOM fields along with their type and name. Please refer to README.md for more information.
