NAME

       dcsort - ACR/NEMA DICOM PS3 ... DICOM PS3 - Make sorted list of images

SYNOPSIS

       dcsort   "  inputfile1  [  inputfile2  ...  ]"  [  -v|verbose  ]  [  -vv|veryverbose  ]  [
                 -vvv|veryveryverbose ] [ -index ] [ -show ] [ -interval ] [ -tolerance  mm  ]  [
                 -check ] [ -checkFoR ] [ -descending ] [ -sortby|k  attributename ]

DESCRIPTION

       dcsort reads the named dicom input files and sorts them by the specified sort key.

       The  sort  key  should  be  a  single  valued  numeric  attribute,  with  the exception of
       ImageOrientationPatient and ImagePositionPatient which are handled as special cases.

       There is no output by default unless the index or verbose options are specified.

OPTIONS

       The output and errors go to standard error.

       The basic input switches are described in dcintro(1). Options  specific  to  this  program
       are:

       -index
              Creates a first column of output that is the index in the sort order, starting from
              0, and a second column that is the filename.

       -show
              Show the value of the sort key after the file name with the -index option

       -interval
              Show the interval between values of the sort key, or an error if not equal

       -tolerance mm
              The tolerance value in mm to use when comparing intervals between slices;  defaults
              to +/- 0.01 mm if unspecified

       -check
              Check that all the images are from the same series.

       -checkFoR
              Check that all the images have the same Frame of Reference (UID).

       -descending
              Sort in descending, rather than the default ascending, order.

       -sortby|k  attributename
              Specify attributename as the sort key.
