Abstract:

BACKGROUND: The DICOM flies include not only the image data but also a plenty of the medical information in the file header, which makes the work of the DICOM image correct reading, writing and display very important.
OBJECTIVE: To make use of the advantage of the toolkit and development platform to reach a basic purpose that achieves the correct reading, writing and display of the DICOM standard image.
METHODS: This article firstly integrated the ITK, VTK with MFC and then read and displayed the DICOM flies by the classes and functions offered by ITK and VTK in the integration environment.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: This article achieved the correct reading, writing and display of the DICOM files by using the method that was mentioned in the article and a flexible, friendly, practical interface offered to users by the integration environment of ITK, VTK and MFC, and made a preliminary attempt on the software development in the integration environment and lay a good foundation for realizing more functional on this basis in medical image processing.
