I converted MR and CT DICOM images to PNG to train a model for pseudo-CT generation. Now I need to convert the generated PNG images back to DICOM for dosimetric evaluation. However, the images are in pixel values (not HU), and the DICOM headers are missing.
How can I:
- Convert pixel values to HU correctly?
- Restore or replicate the original DICOM headers?
Any tools or recommended workflow would be appreciated.
You can try the DIcomizer app install with WEASIS software, it will DIcomize the images back, however, i don't know if the HU will appear again . Just try and give me the feedback
Thanks for the suggestion! I tried Weasis with DICOMIZER—it successfully converted the PNGs to DICOM, but it didn’t restore the HU values since key metadata like Rescale Slope and Intercept were missing. I’ll use a reference CT to manually adjust the pixel values and metadata. Thanks again for your guidance—it was a helpful starting point.
