New submission from Charles Law <charles....@gmail.com>:
DICOM is a file format used frequently in medical imaging (it is also a communications protocol). It has been used since the 80's, and is still widely used by modern medical equipment. It has a well defined format: http://dicom.nema.org/dicom/2013/output/chtml/part10/chapter_7.html This proposal is for the addiction of a check to imghdr module to detect DICOM files, with imghdr.what() and return 'dicom' if a dicom file is found. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 384989 nosy: claw priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Support for DICOM image file format in imghdr module type: enhancement versions: Python 3.10 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42916> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
