I am trying to automatically extract tags from an RT file, however ITK doesn’t directly support this kind of format.
I really don’t need to extract/use the contours, I just need to find the information contained in certain tags.
What would be the best approach? I know that DCMTK supports such format, and that there is a third party module dedicated to this library but I also read on Discourse that it may not work properly…
Is that an RT-STRUCT file? There are several libraries that support reading and tag extraction of DICOM tags (Pydicom, Matlab etc), or are you looking for an application?
As I’ve said in the linked post, the binding of DCMTK to the usual reader/io pipeline is broken. But you can use the ITK-built DCMTK directly, with its own syntax. I don’t know how it behaves with RT-struct though, I’ve only used it for images.
