geoLet: class for loading and presenting DICOM data

In robertogattabs/RadAgent: Package for handling DICOM RT files

Description

Instantiate an object of the class geoLet.This represents just the classname, methods are exposed with the technique of 'closure'. In order to see manuals for the single mathods, consider the vignette or use the available for the following wrapping functions:

• GLT.openDICOMFolder( ); : to load a DICOM series into an geoLet object

• GLT.getImageVoxelCube( ); : to get the ImageVoxelCube stored into a geoLet object

• GLT.getPixelSpacing( ); : to get the pixelSpacing (x,y,z) of the main ImageVoxelCube stored into a geoLet object

• GLT.getROIList( ); : to get the list of the ROI defined in a geoLet object

• GLT.getTag( ); : to get a single DICOM-tag of a DICOM file loaded into a geoLet object

• GLT.getROIVoxels( ); : to get the IMAGE Voxels geometrically located into a ROI, for a given geoLet object

• GLT.extractDoseVoxels( ); : to get the DOSE Voxels geometrically located into a ROI, for a given geoLet object

• GLT.calculateDVH( ); : to get the DVH calculated from a geoLet object

The original methods for the class geoLet can also be invocked using the same name without the previx 'GTL.', i.e.:

Usage

geoLet(ROIVoxelMemoryCache = TRUE, folderCleanUp = FALSE,
  loadXMLInCache = FALSE, loadRAWInCache = TRUE,
  defaultExtension = "*.dcm")

Examples

## Not run: 
# first of all create an object obj.1 and obj.2
obj.1<-geoLet()
obj.2<-geoLet()

# now load a DICOM serie using the methods for obj.1 and the wrapping function for obj.2
# The result is the same: the only difference is some froceries available in the second way (i.e.: help online)

obj.1$openDICOMFolder(pathToOpen='./DICOMSeries/pat001' );
obj.2<-GLT.openDICOMFolder(obj = obj.2, pathToOpen='./DICOMSeries/pat001' );#' 


## End(Not run)
