DICOM Medical Image File .DIC, .DCM, AN? Import Automation Options

Since the Import Options dialog is not displayed when the program is driven from an automation script, an options string can be specified in the script. The string consists of comma-separated parameters, which specify the behavior of the various import options. A typical example would be:

"Defaults=1,AutoContrast=1"

This would first set all import options to their default values, then set the AutoContrast option value to one, which would specify that the dynamic range of the imported data will be expanded to improve the contrast of the image.
