L_UINT16 EXT_FUNCTION L_DicomSetVOILUT(hDS, uVOILUTIndex, pVOILUTAttributes, pLUTData, uDataSize, uFlags)

HDICOMDS hDS;

/* a DICOM handle */

L_UINT uVOILUTIndex;

/* the VOI LUT index*/

pDICOMVOILUTATTRIBS pVOILUTAttributes;

/* pointer to a VOI LUT attributes structure */

L_UINT16 *pLUTData;

/* pointer to the input buffer */

L_UINT uDataSize;

/* size of the input buffer */

L_UINT uFlags;

/* reserved for future use */

Sets the attributes that describe the VOI LUT.

Parameter

Description

hDS

A DICOM handle.

uVOILUTIndex

Index to the VOI LUT to be set. According to the DICOM standard one or more items could exist under one VOI LUT Sequence (0028,3010), use this index to specify which item to update. This index is zero-based.

pVOILUTAttributes

Pointer to a structure containing the VOI LUT attributes to set.

pLUTData

Pointer to the buffer that holds the "LUT Data" (0028,3006), this pointer can’t be NULL.

uDataSize

Size of the buffer pointed to by pLUTData , can’t be 0.This value should at least equal pVOILUTAttributes->LUTDescriptor.uNumberOfEntries.

uFlags

Reserved for future use. Pass 0.

Returns

0

The function was successful.

>0

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

This function will set the attributes of the VOI LUT. Before calling this function, initialize pVOILUTAttributes->uStructSize to be sizeof(DICOMVOILUTATTRIBS) and initialize all the members of the structure.

The size of the input buffer should at least equal the number of entries in the lookup table.

According to the DICOM standard pVOILUTAttributes->LUTDescriptor. uNumberOfEntries should be set to 0 if the number of entries in the lookup table is 2^16, however you should NOT do that when calling this function. This function will handle correctly setting the value inside the dataset.
