Parameters

FileName

The name of the file to write.

This is passed unmodified to the operating system, and it is therefore the container�s responsibility to ensure either that the current directory is set correctly, or that a fully qualified filename is provided.

Like the Paste method, this method modifies only the minimum number of attributes necessary to ensure consistency of the image. In order to produce a valid DICOM SOP instance, many other attributes (depending on the SOP class) must be added.

The import file format is detected automatically, if DicomObjects cannot detect the file type then it will use the file extension as the format.

All formats which can be supported by Windows via new Bitmap(Stream) or explicitly via (including JPEG 2000) are supported.

File extensions for supported formats are:

• JPEG: "JPEG" or "JPG"
• Bitmap: "BMP"
• DIB: "DIB"
• AVI: "AVI"

A multiframe image is created if the input data is a multipage Image

Target Platforms: .NET CLR 4.8 or higher
