How to Filter DICOM Images and Photos with Python
Every well-captured photo carries the potential for improvement, a chance to evolve into something entirely distinct, and emerge as a one-of-a-kind creation. Filters serve as a versatile tool in image and photo enhancement, allowing you to selectively enhance sharpness, introduce blur, or eliminate color artifacts for a truly distinctive result. Experiment with image effects individually or in combination to seamlessly blend color gradients, eliminate undesired noise, and enhance the sharpness of object edges in your photo. To apply these image filters to DICOM files, we’ll be utilizing Aspose.Imaging for Python via .NET API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use image manipulation and conversion API for Python platform. You may install it using the following command from your system command.
The system command line
>> pip install aspose-imaging-python-net
Steps to Filter DICOM via Python
You need the aspose-imaging-python-net to try the following workflow in your own environment.
- load DICOM files with Image.Load method;
- filter image;
- save filtered image to disc in the supported by Aspose.Imaging format.
System Requirements
Aspose.Imaging for Python is supported on all major operating systems. Just make sure that you have the following prerequisites.
- Microsoft Windows / Linux with .NET Core Runtime.
- Python and PyPi package manager.

About Aspose.Imaging for Python API
Aspose.Imaging API is an image processing solution to create, modify, draw or convert images (photos) within applications. It offers: cross-platform Image processing, including but not limited to conversions between various image formats (including uniform multi-page or multi-frame image processing), modifications such as drawing, working with graphic primitives, transformations (resize, crop, flip&rotate, binarization, grayscale, adjust), advanced image manipulation features (filtering, dithering, masking, deskewing), and memory optimization strategies. It’s a standalone library and does not depend on any software for image operations. One can easily add high-performance image conversion features with native APIs within projects. These are 100% private on-premise APIs and images are processed at your servers.Filter DICOM via Online App

DICOM What is DICOM File Format
DICOM is the acronym for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine and pertains to the field of Medical Informatics. DICOM is the combination of file format definition and a network communications protocol. DICOM uses the .DCM extension. .DCM exist in two different formats i.e. format 1.x and format 2.x. DCM Format 1.x is further available in two versions normal and extended. DICOM is used for the integration of medical imaging devices like printers, servers, scanners etc from various vendors and also contains identification data of each patient for uniqueness. DICOM files can be shared between two parties if they are capable of receiving image data in DICOM format. The communication part of DICOM is application layer protocol and uses TCP/IP to communicate between entities. HTTP and HTTPS protocols are used for the web services of DICOM. Versions supported by web services are 1.0, 1.1, 2 or later.
