Sometimes we are asked the question of how to create a new DICOM image from imaging source (such as a detector) that outputs raw pixel data. With the help of DicomImage.SetPixelFile method, this becomes fairly simple. The following C# code shows how to load a single frame CT pixel data file from disk and create a new DicomImage object for display purposes only: DicomObjects.NET SetPixelFile method DicomImage img = new DicomImage(); // add all relevant group 28 attributes to image to tell DicomObjects how to display img.

To generate a Secondary Capture (SC) Image from existing non-Dicom image then all that is required is to load the required image into a DicomImage using the import function and then adding on the appropriate attributes. Dicom Objects will automatically take care of all the attributes relating to the pixel data (Group 0x0028). Part 3 of the Dicom Standard Contains Table A.
