Histogram Method

In This Topic

Returns an array containing the distribution of raw pixel values.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#
C++/CLI

'Declaration
 
Public Function Histogram( _
   ByVal MinValue As Integer, _
   ByVal MaxValue As Integer, _
   ByVal BinSize As Integer _
) As Integer()

'Usage
 
Dim instance As DicomImage
Dim MinValue As Integer
Dim MaxValue As Integer
Dim BinSize As Integer
Dim value() As Integer
 
value = instance.Histogram(MinValue, MaxValue, BinSize)

public int[] Histogram( 
   int MinValue,
   int MaxValue,
   int BinSize
)

public:
array<int>^ Histogram( 
   int MinValue,
   int MaxValue,
   int BinSize
)

Parameters

MinValue: The lowest pixel value to be included
MaxValue: The highest pixel value to be included
BinSize: The number of adjacent pixel values to be grouped into each bin

Return Value

An integer array containing the distribution.

Remarks

The format of the returned data is suitable for creating DICOM Image Histogram modules, though to use this a few other attributes must be added. In keeping with the image histogram module, the values used are raw pixel values before application of a modality lookup table or rescaling � apply Lookup Tables if such translation is required. For multi-frame images, only the first frame is used for this method.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
