This crate works on top of DICOM encoding primitives to provide transfer syntax resolution and abstraction for parsing DICOM data sets, which ultimately enables the user to perceive the DICOM object as a sequence of tokens.

For the time being, all APIs are based on synchronous I/O.

For a more intuitive, object-oriented API, please see the dicom-object crate.

DICOM-rs parser

This sub-project implements a middle-level abstraction for parsing and printing DICOM data sets through a sequence of tokens.

Please see dicom-object for a higher-level API.

This crate is part of the DICOM-rs project and is contained by the parent crate dicom.
