High DICOM

A library that provides high-level DICOM abstractions for the Python programming language to facilitate the creation and handling of DICOM objects for image-derived information, including image annotations, and image analysis results. It currently provides tools for creating and decoding the following DICOM information object definitions (IODs):

  • Annotations
  • Parametric Map images
  • Segmentation images
  • Structured Report documents
  • Secondary Capture images
  • Key Object Selection documents
  • Legacy Converted Enhanced CT/PET/MR images (e.g., for single frame to multi-frame conversion)
  • Softcopy Presentation State instances (including Grayscale, Color, and Pseudo-Color)

Documentation

Please refer to the online documentation at highdicom.readthedocs.io, which includes installation instructions, a user guide with examples, a developer guide, and complete documentation of the application programming interface of the highdicom package.
