Write(Stream,String) Method

In This Topic

Writes dataset to a system IO stream object with specified transfer syntax

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Sub Write( _
   ByVal Stream As System.IO.Stream, _
   ByVal TransferSyntax As System.String _
)

public void Write( 
   System.IO.Stream Stream,
   System.string TransferSyntax
)

Parameters

Stream: The Stream to which to write.
TransferSyntax: Specifies the full UID of the transfer syntax with which the data is to be saved when Part 10 format is used. If omitted, the little-endian explicit VR transfer syntax is used.

Remarks

The stream may subsequently be read by the Read method or by other DICOM software.

This method is particularly suitable for use with Delphi, which provides access to streams via classes such as TStreamAdapter.

Example

DicomDataSet ds = new DicomDataSet();       
string transferSyntax = TransferSyntaxes.ExplicitVRLittleEndian;
            
string pixelTransferSyntax = TransferSyntaxes.ExplicitVRLittleEndian;     
ds.Add(Keyword.SamplesPerPixel, 1);
ds.Add(Keyword.PhotometricInterpretation, "MONOCHROME2");
ds.Add(Keyword.Rows, 512);
ds.Add(Keyword.Columns, 512);
ds.Add(Keyword.PixelSpacing, new float[] { 0.684f, 0.684f });
ds.Add(Keyword.BitsAllocated, 16);
ds.Add(Keyword.BitsStored, 12);
ds.Add(Keyword.HighBit, 11);
ds.Add(Keyword.PixelRepresentation, 0);
ds.Add(Keyword.WindowCenter, new int[] { 35, 50 });
ds.Add(Keyword.WindowWidth, new int[] { 350, 150 });
ds.Add(Keyword.RescaleIntercept, -1200);
ds.Add(Keyword.RescaleSlope, 1);
ds.SetPixelData(pixelTransferSyntax, getData);   
                    
using (FileStream fs = new FileStream("Output_Dataset.dcm", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write))
{
    ds.Write(fs, transferSyntax);
}
            
// Method
private Stream getData(int arg)
{
    return new FileStream("pixel.data", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read);
}

Requirements

Target Platforms: .NET CLR 4.8 or higher
