Create pydicom file from numpy array

Question

I\'m trying to create a mew dicom image from a standard-sized (512 x 512 or 256 x 256) numpy array. It seems like this should be straightforward, and I\'ve adapted my code

Answer 1

DICOM is a really complicated format. There are many dialects, and compatibilty is rather a question of luck. You could alternatively try nibabel, maybe its dialect is more appealing to RadiAnt or MicroDicom.

In general, I'd recommend using Nifti-format whenever possible. Its standard is much more concise, and incompatibilities are rare. nibabel also supports this.
