NAME
       dcmcjpls - Encode DICOM file to JPEG-LS transfer syntax

SYNOPSIS
       dcmcjpls [options] dcmfile-in dcmfile-out

DESCRIPTION
       The  dcmcjpls  utility  reads an uncompressed DICOM image (dcmfile-in),
       performs a JPEG-LS compression (i. e.  conversion  to  an  encapsulated
       DICOM transfer syntax) and writes the converted image to an output file
       (dcmfile-out).

PARAMETERS
       dcmfile-in   DICOM input filename to be converted

       dcmfile-out  DICOM output filename

		use config file f for the logger

   input options
       input file format:

	 +f   --read-file
		read file format or data set (default)

	 +fo  --read-file-only
		read file format only

	 -f   --read-dataset
		read data set without file meta information

       input transfer syntax:

	 -t=  --read-xfer-auto
		use TS recognition (default)

		read with explicit VR little endian TS

	 -tb  --read-xfer-big
		read with explicit VR big endian TS

	 -ti  --read-xfer-implicit
		read with implicit VR little endian TS

   JPEG-LS encoding options
       JPEG-LS process:

	 +el  --encode-lossless
		encode JPEG-LS lossless only TS (default)

	 # This options selects the JPEG-LS lossless only transfer syntax
	 # and performs a lossless compression.

	 +en  --encode-nearlossless
		encode JPEG-LS near-lossless TS (NEAR: 2)

	 # This options selects the JPEG-LS lossy transfer syntax
	 # and performs a near-lossless compression.

       JPEG-LS bit rate (near-lossless only):

	 +md  --max-deviation  [d]eviation: integer (default: 2)
		defines maximum deviation for an encoded pixel

	 # This option specifies the maximum deviation for a single pixel from
	 # the original pixel value.

       lossless compression:

	 +pr  --prefer-raw
		prefer raw encoder mode (default)

	 # This option enables the raw encoder. The raw encoder encodes the
	 # complete pixel cell as it was read from the source image without
	 # performing any modifications.

	 +pc  --prefer-cooked
		prefer cooked encoder mode

	 # This option enables the cooked encoder. The cooked encoder moves
	 # overlay data to separate tags (60xx,3000) and only encodes the
	 # stored bits in each pixel.

       JPEG-LS compression:

	 +t1  --threshold1  [t]hreshhold: integer (default for 8 bpp: 3)
		set JPEG-LS encoding parameter threshold 1

	 +t2  --threshold2  [t]hreshhold: integer (default for 8 bpp: 7)
		set JPEG-LS encoding parameter threshold 2

		set JPEG-LS encoding parameter limit

       JPEG-LS interleave:

	 +il  --interleave-line
		force line-interleaved JPEG-LS images (default)

	 # This flag forces line-interleaved mode for the resulting image.
	 # In line-interleave mode each line from the source image is
	 # compressed separately for each component and then the next line
	 # is encoded.

	 +is  --interleave-sample
		force sample-interleaved JPEG-LS images

	 # This flag forces sample-interleaved mode for the resulting image.
	 # In sample-interleave mode each pixel's components are encoded before
	 # the next pixe is encoded.

	 +in  --interleave-none
		force uninterleaved JPEG-LS images

	 # This flag forces uninterleaved mode for the resulting image.
	 # In this mode, each of the image's components are completely encoded
	 # before the next component is handled.

	 +iv  --interleave-default
		use the fastest possible interleave mode

	 # This flag selects an interleave mode based on the source image's mode.
	 # If possible, the image is not converted to a different interleave mode.

   encapsulated pixel data encoding options
       encapsulated pixel data fragmentation:

	 +ff  --fragment-per-frame
		encode each frame as one fragment (default)

	 # This option causes the creation of one compressed fragment for each
	 # frame (recommended).

	 +fs  --fragment-size  [s]ize: integer
		limit fragment size to s kbytes

	 # This option limits the fragment size which may cause the creation of
	 # multiple fragments per frame.

       basic offset table encoding:

	 +ot  --offset-table-create
		create offset table (default)

	 # This option causes the creation of a valid offset table for the
	 # compressed JPEG fragments.

	 -ot  --offset-table-empty
		leave offset table empty

	 # This option causes the creation of an empty offset table
	 # for the compressed JPEG fragments.

       SOP Class UID:

	 +cd  --class-default
		keep SOP Class UID (default)

	 # Keep the SOP Class UID of the source image.

	 +cs  --class-sc
		convert to Secondary Capture Image (implies --uid-always)

	 # Convert the image to Secondary Capture.  In addition to the SOP Class
	 # UID, all attributes required for a valid secondary capture image are
	 # added. A new SOP instance UID is always assigned.

       SOP Instance UID:

	 +ud  --uid-default
		assign new UID if lossy compression (default)

	 # Assigns a new SOP instance UID if the compression is lossy JPEG.

	 +ua  --uid-always

		and items on multiple of i bytes

NOTES
       The dcmcjpls utility  compresses	 DICOM	images	of  all	 SOP  classes.
       However,	 dcmcjpls does not attempt to ensure that the compressed image
       still complies with all restrictions of the object's IOD.

       The user is responsible for making sure that the compressed  images  he
       creates	are  compliant	with  the  DICOM standard. If in question, the
       dcmcjpls utility allows to convert an image to secondary capture - this
       SOP class does not pose restrictions as the ones mentioned above.

TRANSFER SYNTAXES
       dcmcjpls	 supports  the following transfer syntaxes for input (dcmfile-
       in):

       LittleEndianImplicitTransferSyntax	      1.2.840.10008.1.2
       LittleEndianExplicitTransferSyntax	      1.2.840.10008.1.2.1
       DeflatedExplicitVRLittleEndianTransferSyntax   1.2.840.10008.1.2.1.99 (*)
       BigEndianExplicitTransferSyntax		      1.2.840.10008.1.2.2

       (*) if compiled with zlib support enabled

       dcmcjpls supports the following transfer syntaxes for output  (dcmfile-
       out):

       JPEGLSLosslessTransferSyntax		      1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.80
       JPEGLSLossyTransferSyntax		      1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.81

LOGGING
       The  level  of  logging	output	of  the various command line tools and
       underlying libraries can be specified by the  user.  By	default,  only
       errors  and  warnings  are  written to the standard error stream. Using
       option --verbose also informational messages  like  processing  details
       are  reported.  Option  --debug	can be used to get more details on the
       internal activity, e.g. for debugging purposes.	Other  logging	levels
       can  be	selected  using option --log-level. In --quiet mode only fatal
       errors are reported. In such very severe error events, the  application
       will  usually  terminate.  For  more  details  on the different logging
       levels, see documentation of module 'oflog'.

       In case the logging output should be written to file  (optionally  with
       logfile	rotation),  to syslog (Unix) or the event log (Windows) option
       --log-config can be used.  This	configuration  file  also  allows  for
       directing  only	certain messages to a particular output stream and for
       filtering certain messages based on the	module	or  application	 where
       they  are  generated.  An  example  configuration  file	is provided in
       <etcdir>/logger.cfg).

COMMAND LINE
       All command line tools  use  the	 following  notation  for  parameters:
       square  brackets	 enclose  optional  values  (0-1), three trailing dots
       indicate that multiple values are allowed (1-n), a combination of  both
       means 0 to n values.

       Command line options are distinguished from parameters by a leading '+'
       or '-' sign, respectively. Usually, order and position of command  line
       options	are  arbitrary	(i.e.  they  can appear anywhere). However, if
       options are mutually exclusive the rightmost appearance is  used.  This
       behaviour  conforms  to	the  standard  evaluation rules of common Unix
       shells.

       In addition, one or more command files can be specified	using  an  '@'
       sign  as	 a  prefix to the filename (e.g. @command.txt). Such a command
       argument is replaced by the content  of	the  corresponding  text  file
       (multiple  whitespaces  are  treated  as a single separator unless they
       appear between two quotation marks) prior to  any  further  evaluation.
       Please  note  that  a command file cannot contain another command file.
       This  simple  but  effective  approach  allows  to   summarize	common
       combinations  of	 options/parameters  and  avoids longish and confusing
       command lines (an example is provided in file <datadir>/dumppat.txt).

ENVIRONMENT
       The dcmcjpls utility will  attempt  to  load  DICOM  data  dictionaries
       specified  in the DCMDICTPATH environment variable. By default, i.e. if
       the  DCMDICTPATH	 environment   variable	  is   not   set,   the	  file
       <datadir>/dicom.dic  will be loaded unless the dictionary is built into
       the application (default for Windows).

       The  default  behaviour	should	be  preferred  and   the   DCMDICTPATH
       environment  variable  only used when alternative data dictionaries are
       required. The DCMDICTPATH environment variable has the same  format  as
       the  Unix  shell PATH variable in that a colon (':') separates entries.
       On Windows systems, a semicolon (';') is used as a separator. The  data
       dictionary  code	 will  attempt	to  load  each	file  specified in the
       DCMDICTPATH environment variable. It is an error if no data  dictionary
       can be loaded.
