How to Resize DICOM Images and Photos with Python

When preparing images and photos for website publication, it’s crucial to consider the specificity of web technologies. A key aspect in this process involves adjusting the sizes of the images. There is often a necessity to scale down images and save files in various resolutions. For instance, gallery pages featuring previews should incorporate small file thumbnails, while pages designated for viewing selected images must offer high-resolution options. Resizing large files can be achieved by reducing the total number of pixels, but the reduction in file size must be done without compromising image quality. During the scaling process, it is important to consider the data compression setting to maintain a balance between image size and quality. Smaller images load faster, a particularly significant advantage on mobile connections, ultimately enhancing the user experience on your website. Automating the bulk file size conversion is easily achievable using the Python library. To resize DICOM images, we will utilize 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

  • 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.

    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.
