Documentation for fo-dicom version 4
Fellow Oak DICOM, a DICOM toolkit in C# for .NET Framework, .NET Core, Universal Windows, Android, iOS, Mono and Unity.
Note:
Version 4 is the last version of fo-dicom that is based on the
Portable Class Library (PCL).
As PCL is deprecated by Microsoft, newer versions of fo-dicom (starting with 5.0.0) use
.NET Standard instead.
Bugfixes and minor improvements will still be added to fo-dicom 4 for some time.
Main features
- Portable Class Library (PCL)
- Targets .NET 4.5.2 and higher, .NET Core (.NET Standard 1.3 and higher), Universal Windows Platform, Xamarin iOS, Xamarin Android, Mono and Unity
- DICOM dictionary version 2021b
- High-performance, fully asynchronous async/await API
- JPEG (including lossless), JPEG-LS, JPEG2000, and RLE image compression (limited on .NET Core, Xamarin, Mono and Unity platforms)
- Supports very large datasets with content loading on demand
- Platform-specific image rendering
- JSON import and export

- Anonymization
