Grassroots DICOM or GDCM (originally called GNU DiCoM; the name was changed at a request for integration in ITK
, followed by a change in license), is a cross-platform
library written in C++ for DICOM
medical files. It is automatically wrapped to Python/C#/Java & PHP (using swig
). It supports RAW, JPEG (lossy/lossless), J2K, JPEG-LS, RLE and deflated. It also comes with DICOM Part 3,6 & 7 of the standard as XML files. It can be used to build a JPIP or WADO server.
