Need help in implementing DICOM in JAVA

I want to implement Dicom using JAVA. And also i should not use any existing API and i have to develop from the scratch. I spent almost 10 days in understanding DICOM itself,i got some vague idea so kindly help how implement it in java , where to star开发者_运维技巧t,architechture etc...

I agree with malat. DICOM is a complex beast and re-implementing everything from scratch is likely not the way to go.

I would also add dcm4che as a toolkit which can be used to process, create and manipulate DICOM objects in Java.

I would read the source code of other open-source projects such as:

• GDCM
• DCMTK
• dicom3tools

DICOM can be very subtle, I would say it will take you 3-5 years of experience to understand all the details and fix all your bugs. You should avoid re-inventing the wheel.
