1.3.0#
Documentation#
New User Guide page for Python 2 support timeline
New User Guide page for working with private data elements
example loading set of CT slices and plotting axial, sagittal and coronal (#789)
Changes#
Removed deprecated uid variables, config.image_handlers and DeferredDataElement (#760)
dataelem.isMultiValue
is deprecated and will be removed in v1.4. Usedataelem.DataElement.VM
instead.dataelem.isStringOrStringList
anddataelem.isString
functions are removeddatadict.add_dict_entry
anddatadict.add_dict_entries
now raise if trying to add a private tagdataset.Dataset.maxBytesToDisplay
also limits display length for non-binary VRs (by number of items) (#666)
Enhancements#
Added
datadict.add_private_dict_entry
anddatadict.add_private_dict_entries
to add custom private tags (#799)Added possibility to write into zip file using gzip, by avoiding seek (#753)
Added RLE encoding (#730)
Added handling of incorrect transfer syntax (explicit vs implicit) (#820)
Added creation of Tag instances by DICOM keyword, e.g Tag(“PatientName”)
Added possibility to get and add private tags without adding them to the private dictionary
Added possibility to use a
Dataset
in aNumPy
arrayAllow missing padding byte in Pixel Data, issue a warning in this case (#864)
Add in-memory image decoding with GDCM
Check really used implicit/explicit VR before reading a data set (#819, #820)
Added alpha conversion of Datasets to/from JSON format (Python 3 only)
Fixes#
Correctly handle Dataset.pop and Dataset.setdefault for tuple and keyword arguments (#852)
Correctly handle encoding errors when any of the encodings are invalid (not just the first) (#850)
Do not raise while resolving an ambiguous VR dependent on PixelRepresentation if both PixelRepresentation and PixelData are not present (#838)
Raise exception with specific message if value is too large to be written in explicit transfer syntax (#757)
Make hash for PersonName3 behave as expected, make PersonName objects immutable (#785)
Fixed generate_uid() returning non-conformant UIDs when prefix=None (#788)
Avoid exception if reading from empty file (#810)
An invalid encoding is now replaced by the default encoding, if
config.enforce_valid_values
is not set (#815)Correctly handle elements with ambiguous VR in sequence items (#804)
Fix bug where new DicomDir objects always have is_implicit_VR
Fix dataset equality for mixed raw vs converted data elements (#835)
Remove excess padding in Pixel Data
Fix wrong date format in anonymize example
Fix unknown VR exception message when VR isn’t ASCII (#791)
Fix jis-x-0201 characters encoding (#856)
