pydicom.pixel_data_handlers.pillow_handler

Use the pillow Python package to decode Pixel Data.

Functions

get_pixeldata(ds)	Return a numpy.ndarray of the Pixel Data.
is_available()	Return True if the handler has its dependencies met.
needs_to_convert_to_RGB(ds)	Return True if the Pixel Data should to be converted from YCbCr to RGB.
should_change_PhotometricInterpretation_to_RGB(ds)	Return True if the Photometric Interpretation should be changed to RGB.
supports_transfer_syntax(transfer_syntax)	Return True if the handler supports the transfer_syntax.

pydicom.pixel_data_handlers.pillow_handler.get_pixeldata(ds: Dataset) → numpy.ndarray

Return a numpy.ndarray of the Pixel Data.

Parameters

ds (Dataset) – The Dataset containing an Image Pixel module and the Pixel Data to be decompressed and returned.

Returns

The contents of (7FE0,0010) Pixel Data as a 1D array.

Return type

numpy.ndarray

Raises

• ImportError – If Pillow is not available.

• NotImplementedError – If the transfer syntax is not supported

pydicom.pixel_data_handlers.pillow_handler.is_available() → bool

Return True if the handler has its dependencies met.

pydicom.pixel_data_handlers.pillow_handler.needs_to_convert_to_RGB(ds: Dataset) → bool

Return True if the Pixel Data should to be converted from YCbCr to RGB.

This affects JPEG transfer syntaxes.

pydicom.pixel_data_handlers.pillow_handler.should_change_PhotometricInterpretation_to_RGB(ds: Dataset) → bool

Return True if the Photometric Interpretation should be changed to RGB.

This affects JPEG transfer syntaxes.

pydicom.pixel_data_handlers.pillow_handler.supports_transfer_syntax(transfer_syntax: pydicom.uid.UID) → bool

Return True if the handler supports the transfer_syntax.

Parameters

transfer_syntax (uid.UID) – The Transfer Syntax UID of the Pixel Data that is to be used with the handler.
