NAME
     dsr2html - Render DICOM SR file and data set to HTML/XHTML

SYNOPSIS
     dsr2html [options] dsrfile-in [htmlfile-out]

DESCRIPTION
     The  dsr2html  utility renders the contents of a DICOM Structured Reporting
     (SR) document (file format or raw data set) to HTML (Hyper Text Markup Lan-
     guage) version 3.2 or 4.01 as well  as  to  XHTML	(Extensible  Hyper  Text
     Markup Language) version 1.1.

     If  dsr2html  reads  a raw data set (DICOM data without a file format meta-
     header) it will attempt to guess the transfer syntax by examining the first
     few bytes of the file. It is not always possible  to  correctly  guess  the
     transfer  syntax  and  it	is better to convert a data set to a file format
     whenever possible (using the dcmconv utility). It is also possible  to  use
     the  -f and -t[ieb] options to force dsr2html to read a dataset with a par-
     ticular transfer syntax.

     dsrfile-in    DICOM SR input filename to be rendered ("-" for stdin)

     htmlfile-out  HTML/XHTML output filename (default: stdout)

   Character Encoding
     The HTML/XHTML encoding is determined  automatically  from  the  DICOM  at-
     tribute (0008,0005) 'Specific Character Set' using the following mapping:

     ASCII	   (ISO_IR 6)			    =>	(none)
     UTF-8	   "ISO_IR 192" 		    =>	"UTF-8"
     ISO Latin 1   "ISO_IR 100" 		    =>	"ISO-8859-1"
     ISO Latin 2   "ISO_IR 101" 		    =>	"ISO-8859-2"
     ISO Latin 3   "ISO_IR 109" 		    =>	"ISO-8859-3"
     ISO Latin 4   "ISO_IR 110" 		    =>	"ISO-8859-4"
     ISO Latin 5   "ISO_IR 148" 		    =>	"ISO-8859-9"
     ISO Latin 9   "ISO_IR 203" 		    =>	"ISO-8859-15"
     Cyrillic	   "ISO_IR 144" 		    =>	"ISO-8859-5"
     Arabic	   "ISO_IR 127" 		    =>	"ISO-8859-6"
     Greek	   "ISO_IR 126" 		    =>	"ISO-8859-7"
     Hebrew	   "ISO_IR 138" 		    =>	"ISO-8859-8"
     Thai	   "ISO_IR 166" 		    =>	"TIS-620"
     Japanese	   "ISO 2022 IR 13ISO 2022 IR 87"  =>  "ISO-2022-JP"
     Korean	   "ISO 2022 IR 6ISO 2022 IR 149"  =>  "ISO-2022-KR"
     Chinese	   "ISO 2022 IR 6ISO 2022 IR 58"   =>  "ISO-2022-CN"
     Chinese	   "GB18030"			    =>	"GB18030"
     Chinese	   "GBK"			    =>	"GBK"

     If  this DICOM attribute is missing in the input file, although needed, op-
     tion --charset-assume can be used to specify an appropriate  character  set
     manually  (using  one  of the DICOM defined terms). For reasons of backward
     compatibility with previous versions of this tool, the following terms  are
     also  supported  and  mapped  automatically to the associated DICOM defined
     terms: latin-1, latin-2, latin-3, latin-4, latin-5, latin-9, cyrillic, ara-
     bic, greek, hebrew.

     Option --convert-to-utf8 can be used to convert the DICOM file or data  set
     to UTF-8 encoding prior to the rendering to HTML/XHTML format.

   Security
     Please  note  that  using one of the options --css-reference, --css-file or
     --hyperlink-url-prefix can lead to security issues, as  an  attacker  could
     misuse  them  to  potentially  inject dangerous content into the HTML/XHTML
     output. The values passed to these options are not checked, neither the URL
     and prefix nor the content of the specified CSS file.

LOGGING
     The level of logging output of the various command line tools and	underly-
     ing  libraries  can  be  specified by the user. By default, only errors and
     warnings are written to the standard error stream. Using  option  --verbose
     also  informational  messages  like processing details are reported. Option
     --debug can be used to get more details on the internal activity, e.g.  for
     debugging	purposes.  Other  logging  levels  can	be selected using option
     --log-level. In --quiet mode only fatal errors are reported. In  such  very
     severe  error  events, the application will usually terminate. For more de-
     tails on the different logging levels, see documentation of module 'oflog'.

     In case the logging output should be written to file (optionally with  log-
     file  rotation),  to syslog (Unix) or the event log (Windows) option --log-
     config can be used. This configuration file also allows for directing  only
     certain  messages	to  a particular output stream and for filtering certain
     messages based on the module or application where they  are  generated.  An
     example configuration file is provided in <etcdir>/logger.cfg.

COMMAND LINE
     All  command  line  tools use the following notation for parameters: square
     brackets enclose optional values (0-1), three trailing dots  indicate  that
     multiple  values are allowed (1-n), a combination of both means 0 to n val-
     ues.

     Command line options are distinguished from parameters by a leading '+'  or
     '-' sign, respectively. Usually, order and position of command line options
     are  arbitrary (i.e. they can appear anywhere). However, if options are mu-
     tually exclusive the rightmost appearance is used. This  behavior	conforms
     to the standard evaluation rules of common Unix shells.

     In  addition,  one or more command files can be specified using an '@' sign
     as a prefix to the filename (e.g. @command.txt). Such a command argument is
     replaced by the content of the corresponding  text  file  (multiple  white-
     spaces  are  treated  as  a single separator unless they appear between two
     quotation marks) prior to any further evaluation. Please note that  a  com-
     mand  file  cannot  contain another command file. This simple but effective
     approach allows one to summarize common combinations of  options/parameters
     and  avoids  longish and confusing command lines (an example is provided in
     file <datadir>/dumppat.txt).

ENVIRONMENT
     The dsr2html utility will attempt to load DICOM data dictionaries specified
     in the DCMDICTPATH environment variable. By default, i.e. if  the	DCMDICT-
     PATH  environment variable is not set, the file <datadir>/dicom.dic will be
     loaded unless the dictionary is built into  the  application  (default  for
     Windows).

     The  default  behavior  should be preferred and the DCMDICTPATH environment
     variable only used when alternative data  dictionaries  are  required.  The
     DCMDICTPATH environment variable has the same format as the Unix shell PATH
     variable  in  that  a  colon (':') separates entries. On Windows systems, a
     semicolon (';') is used as a separator. The data dictionary code  will  at-
     tempt  to load each file specified in the DCMDICTPATH environment variable.
     It is an error if no data dictionary can be loaded.

     Depending on the command line options specified, the dsr2html utility  will
     attempt  to  load character set mapping tables. This happens when DCMTK was
     compiled with the oficonv library (which is the default)  and  the  mapping
     tables  are  not built into the library (default when DCMTK uses shared li-
     braries).

     The mapping table files are expected in DCMTK's <datadir>. The DCMICONVPATH
     environment variable can be used to specify a different location. If a dif-
     ferent location is specified, those mapping tables also replace any  built-
     in tables.
