This is an initial personal attempt of turning the Pixelmed DICOM Toolkit from Dr. David Clunie into a github project, switching from Makefiles to maven and integrating it into the build pipeline.
Dicom is both, a technical format and a semantic reference for storing medical data into a file.
It is mainly used for storing medical image data, such as CT or MRI Scans.
Even if there is some common definition, different manufacturers tend to interpret the semantics of certain fields differently.
The origin of the code can be found here, which is under the BSD Licence: https://www.pixelmed.com/dicomtoolkit.html
The current state of this code is not recommended for production use.
