使用python的pydicom模块对DICOMDIR文件的读取与结果显示

一、DICOMDIR 文件结构

DICOMDIR 文件是一个可变长度的迷你database文件，描述的是一个 4 层的树状结构。

1. Patient

2. Study

3. Series

4. Image

二、DICOM图像三种常见的存储形式

1. 单独存储：

只有一张单张的医学图像，没有任何其他的文件。

2. 混合存储 ：

较常见，一份文件中包含多个病人和多个序列的图像，带有配套的DICOMDIR文件，但多个病人和多个序列的图像混在一起存放，较难分辨哪些图片属于同一个病人。

3. 分层存储 ：

较常见，一份文件中包含多个病人和多个序列的图像，带有配套的DICOMDIR文件，但图片按照一定规律分层存放，可以分辨哪些图片属于同一个病人。

三、python的pydicom模块对DICOMDIR的操作

唯一需要修改的地方是第6行path = ‘ ’中填写DICOMDIR文件的地址，如C:\DICOMDIR

from os.path import dirname, join
from pprint import pprint
import pydicom
from pydicom.filereader import read_dicomdir

path = ‘ ’
#load the data 
dicom_dir = read_dicomdir(path)
base_dir = dirname(path)

#go through the patient record and print information
for patient_record in dicom_dir.patient_records:
    if (hasattr(patient_record, 'PatientID') and
            hasattr(patient_record, 'PatientName')):
        print("Patient: {}: {}".format(patient_record.PatientID,
                                       patient_record.PatientName))
    studies = patient_record.children
    # got through each serie
    for study in studies:
        print(" " * 4 + "Study {}: {}: {}".format(study.StudyID,
                                                  study.StudyDate,
                                                  study.StudyDescription))
        all_series = study.children
        # go through each serie
        for series in all_series:
            image_count = len(series.children)
            plural = ('', 's')[image_count > 1]

            # Write basic series info and image count

            # Put N/A in if no Series Description
            if 'SeriesDescription' not in series:
                series.SeriesDescription = "N/A"
            print(" " * 8 + "Series {}: {}: {} ({} image{})".format(
                series.SeriesNumber, series.Modality, series.SeriesDescription,
                image_count, plural))

            # Open and read something from each image, for demonstration
            # purposes. For simple quick overview of DICOMDIR, leave the
            # following out
            print(" " * 12 + "Reading images...")
            image_records = series.children
            image_filenames = [join(base_dir, *image_rec.ReferencedFileID)
                               for image_rec in image_records]

            datasets = [pydicom.dcmread(image_filename)
                        for image_filename in image_filenames]

            patient_names = set(ds.PatientName for ds in datasets)
            patient_IDs = set(ds.PatientID for ds in datasets)

            # List the image filenames
            print("\n" + " " * 12 + "Image filenames:")
            print(" " * 12, end=' ')
            pprint(image_filenames, indent=12)

            # Expect all images to have same patient name, id
            # Show the set of all names, IDs found (should each have one)
            print(" " * 12 + "Patient Names in images..: {}".format(
                patient_names))
            print(" " * 12 + "Patient IDs in images..: {}".format(
                patient_IDs))
