how to create j2k codestream

[alessandro_c_]

Hello,

I use IPP library version 7.0.7 through UIC layer.

I need to create j2k codestream in order to create pixel data for DICOM file.

I don't know if there is a way to create j2k codestream directly. The only way that I've found it's a bit dirty:

I create a jp2 file then i extract the j2k codestream, I only need to remove the header of the jp2 file.

To explain what i need i attached the two file:

- lenajp2.7z that contain image lenajp2.jp2 with the header

- lena.j2k that contain image codestream lenaj2k.j2k

I know both files can be properly handled by ipp library but DICOM recognize only the buffer of the latter file as correct pixel data.

alessandro,

You can get more information about UIC capabilities here: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/code-samples-for-intel-integrated-performance-primitives-intel-ipp-library-71. And here: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-ipp-unified-image-codecs-training-material.

Hello chuck,

Thank you for your answer

of course I've already downloaded UIC samples and training material.

In intel-ipp-uic-training-nov-2011.pdf it is indicated among UIC derivative classes (page 6) j2k encoder. However in IPP samples there is only the following class

class UICAPI JP2Encoder : public BaseImageEncoder

using this class i can create very easily a jp2 file. But In order to create a DICOM image I need j2k codestream. I know that jp2 file and j2k codestream are the same thing except for a starting header in jp2 file. I wonder if there is a way to create directly a j2k codestream or i need to extract it from jp2 file.
