NAME

       gdcmpap3 - Tool to convert PAPYRUS 3.0 to DICOM.

SYNOPSIS

           gdcmpap3 [options] file-in file-out

DESCRIPTION

       The gdcmpap3 command line program takes as input a PAPYRUS 3.0 file (file-in) and process it to generate
       an output (pseudo) DICOM file (file-out). The command line option dictate the type of operation(s)
       gdcmpap3 will use to generate the output file.

PARAMETERS

           file-in   DICOM input filename

           file-out  DICOM output filename

OPTIONS

             -i --input      DICOM filename
             -o --output     DICOM filename

SPECIFIC OPTIONS

             -S --split            Split multiframes PAPYRUS 3.0 into multiples DICOM files
                --decomp-pap3      Use PAPYRUS 3.0 for decompressing (can be combined with --split).
                --check-iop        Check that the Image Orientation (Patient) Attribute is ok (see --split).

GENERAL OPTIONS

             -h   --help
                    print this help text and exit

             -v   --version
                    print version information and exit

             -V   --verbose
                    verbose mode (warning+error).

             -W   --warning
                    warning mode, print warning information

             -E   --error
                    error mode, print error information

             -D   --debug
                    debug mode, print debug information

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE

       GDCM_ROOT_UID Root UID

SIMPLE USAGE

       gdcmpap3 is a great tool to convert broken PAPYRUS 3.0 implementation into properly parsable DICOM file.
       Usage is simply:

           $ gdcmpap3 input.pa3 output.dcm

       or if you prefer being explicit:

           $ gdcmpap3 -i input.pa3 -o output.dcm

       Even though gdcmpap3 can overwrite directly on the same file (input.pa3 = output.dcm), it is recommended
       that user should first convert into a different file to make sure the bug is properly handled by GDCM.
