[BUG] Unable to import DICOM #566

Closed uyousafzai54 closed 2 years ago

uyousafzai54 commented 2 years ago

Describe the bug While trying to import a DICOM dataset, I get the following error.

Unrecognized field name "SpacingBetweenSlices".

Error in matRad_importDicomCt (line 84)
        ctInfo(i).SliceThickness = tmpDicomInfo.SpacingBetweenSlices;

I believe this due to different headers in my DICOM dataset. Is there any documentation on the required headers for importing DICOMs? I can send the dataset if required to find out what the issue is.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

wahln commented 2 years ago

There is no documentation so far, but the DICOM tag "SpacingBetweenSlices" is required and it is apparently not there, so that's the issue. Are you importing a normal CT or something else? Which system was it exported from?

uyousafzai54 commented 2 years ago

I am importing normal CT scans. The headers for a sample DICOM from this set are shown below.

For the SpacingBetweenSlices tag, what is type of the expected data to be (string, float etc)?

amitantony commented 2 years ago

I believe SpacingBetweenSlices is a float value src: [ https://dicom.innolitics.com/ciods/ct-performed-procedure-protocol/performed-ct-reconstruction/00189934/00180050 ]

wahln commented 2 years ago

It seems like the information on resolution of your CT phantom is missing. I would suggest to set the tags SliceThickness (z resolution) and PixelSpacing (x-y resolution) to actual resolutions, as matRad prefers "SliceThickness" and only uses "SpacingBetweenSlices" as back-up.

Thank you for getting back. I fixed these issues and now the error is the following. 

Warning: Field SourceToSurfaceDistance not found on beam sequence Item_1. No field shape import performed!

Error in matRad_importDicomRTPlan (line 125)
    pln.propStf.collimation  = matRad_importFieldShapes(BeamSequence,fractionSequence);

I'm not completely sure as to why my dataset is leading to this. Any insights?
