NAME
     dconvlum - Convert VeriLUM files to DCMTK display files

SYNOPSIS
     dconvlum in-file out-file [ambient]

DESCRIPTION
     Command  line  program that converts VeriLUM file with characteristic curve
     data (CCx_xx.dat) to a format used for the Barten	transformation	in  this
     toolkit.  VeriLUM is a calibration package from ImageSmiths consisting of a
     photometer (with serial RS232 connector) and a Windows NT software.

PARAMETERS
     in-file   VeriLUM characteristic curve file to be converted

     out-file  DCMTK display file to be written

     ambient   ambient light (cd/m^2, floating point value)

NOTES
     The output file describing the characteristic curve  of  a  display  system
     (monitor)	is  a simple text file. Lines starting with a '#' are treated as
     comments and therefore skipped as well as blank lines. This conversion pro-
     gram creates such a file automatically (including some  comment  lines)  by
     transforming the information stored in the VeriLUM file. The number follow-
     ing  the magic word 'max' defines the maximum DDL value (e.g. 255 for 8 bit
     displays). This definition is required before the luminance data can be de-
     fined. Optionally the ambient light value can be  specified  in  this  file
     too. The floating point value (in candela per square meter) must follow the
     word 'amb'. Finally the luminance values are defined for each corresponding
     DDL  (digital  driving level) value. The entries do not necessarily have to
     be ordered or complete, i.e. there can be less  than  'max'  +  1	entries.
     Missing values are calculated by cubic spline interpolation.

     See  DICOM  standard  part  14  for more details on display calibration and
     Barten's model (including GSDF).
