# tid1500reader

This tool can be used to convert a DICOM Structured Report object that follows [template TID1500](http://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/chtml/part16/chapter_A.html#sect_TID_1500) into a JSON representation of the measurements. The converter was developed and tested specifically to recognize SR TID1500 objects that store measurements derived from volumetric rasterized segmentations. It will not work for other use cases of TID1500.

## Usage

```
   --outputMetadata <std::string>
     File name of the JSON file that will keep the metadata and
     measurements information.

   --inputDICOM <std::string>
     File name of the DICOM SR TID1500 object.
```

## Example objects

* [measurements over liver segmentation](https://fedorov.gitbooks.io/rsna2016-qirr-dicom4qi/content/instructions/sr-tid1500.html#test-dataset-1)
* [measurements for multiple regions segmented from PET](https://fedorov.gitbooks.io/rsna2016-qirr-dicom4qi/content/instructions/sr-tid1500.html#test-dataset-2)
