Context

Three transfer syntaxes were asked for and all three are implemented here:
JPEG XL, Encapsulated Uncompressed, and Deflated Image Frame Compression.

This branch lands after #2890 and has it merged in, so the diff against
main shows that PR's progressive-loading changes too until it merges. Review
against #2890's head, or wait for it to land.

The details below come from the standard rather than from existing practice,
because two of the three syntaxes are recent and the repository's existing JPEG
XL constant turned out to be wrong.

Changes & Results

Encapsulated Uncompressed Explicit VR Little Endian — 1.2.840.10008.1.2.1.98

Nothing is compressed. The syntax exists so uncompressed pixel data can use the
encapsulated format, one frame per fragment, which makes a single frame
addressable without reading the whole Pixel Data element (PS3.5 A.4.11).
Decoding is therefore trimming the fragment's padding and reading the rest as
Explicit VR Little Endian.

Deflated Image Frame Compression — 1.2.840.10008.1.2.8.1

Each frame is separately compressed with raw DEFLATE per RFC 1951 — no zlib
header, no Adler-32 trailer — and encapsulated as one fragment per frame
(PS3.5 A.4.13). Raw is load bearing, so this is pako.inflateRaw, and a test
pins that a zlib-wrapped stream is rejected rather than silently accepted.

Worth distinguishing from Deflated Explicit VR Little Endian
(1.2.840.10008.1.2.1.99), which already worked: that deflates the whole data
set
, so dicomParser inflates it at parse time and a frame reaches the decoder
already uncompressed. The new syntax deflates per frame, so inflating happens
in the decoder. Both are now commented to say which is which.

Padding. Both syntaxes pad: encapsulated fragments to an even length, and
Deflated Image Frame Compression appends a NULL when the deflated stream itself
is odd. Both decoders trim to the frame's native pixel length via a shared
nativeFrameBytes helper, which also handles bit-packed (BitsAllocated 1)
frames. A frame shorter than its pixel data throws rather than rendering
partially.

Latent bug found on the way. framesAreFragmented compared
NumberOfFrames against the fragment count, but a single-frame image carries no
NumberOfFrames element — so undefined !== 1 read as "fragmented" and fell
back to createJPEGBasicOffsetTable, a scan for JPEG SOI markers. That scan
finds nothing in a syntax that is not JPEG, which would have broken both new
syntaxes (and JPEG XL later) for the most common case of all: a single-frame
image. It now defaults to 1. Existing JPEG behaviour is unchanged — a genuinely
multi-fragment frame still takes the marker-scan path.

JPEG XL UIDs — corrected, not implemented

image/jxl mapped to 1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.140, which is not a JPEG XL UID at
all. Supplement 232 assigns:

UID Name
1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.110 JPEG XL Lossless
1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.111 JPEG XL JPEG Recompression
1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.112 JPEG XL

image/jxl now resolves to .110, which PS3.18 Table 8.7.3-5 gives as the
default when a response carries no transfer-syntax parameter.
application/x-deflate was added from the same table. All three UIDs are in
constants/transferSyntaxes.

Testing

packages/dicomImageLoader/src/__tests__/encapsulatedAndDeflatedFrames.spec.ts
adds 13 tests: native frame sizing including bit-packed and multi-sample,
padding trimmed / truncation thrown, both decoders over signed and unsigned
data, a deflate frame that is a view into a larger buffer (which is how frames
actually arrive), and the raw-vs-zlib distinction.

Full suite: 428 tests pass in dicomImageLoader, tsc --noEmit clean.

I have not exercised any of the three syntaxes against real DICOM instances
in a browser - I had no conformant sample files for them. The unit tests
construct frames directly, and the JPEG XL codec is not exercised at all. Sample
data through the wadouri and wadors paths is the check this most needs before
merging; for JPEG XL it would be the only end-to-end evidence there is.

JPEG XL

All three syntaxes decode through @cornerstonejs/codec-libjxl 1.1.0, published
2026-09-04. One decoder covers the set.

Two details from the codec that are easy to get wrong:

  • Signedness comes from PixelRepresentation, not the codestream. JPEG XL
    has no signed sample type, so the decoder always reports isSigned: false.
    This is the arrangement JPEG-LS already uses, so the shared getPixelData
    already had the signedOverride argument for it. A test pins a 16 bit frame
    reading as Int16Array on the override alone - trusting the frame info there
    would render signed CT as large positive values.
  • JPEG XL is deliberately not in streamableTransferSyntaxes. The codec
    calls JxlDecoderCloseInput() up front and throws on
    JXL_DEC_NEED_MORE_INPUT, so a partial buffer must wait for the whole frame
    rather than be handed to a decoder that will reject it. The format does
    support progressive decoding; this build does not use libjxl's
    SetProgressiveDetail/FlushImage path. Both the gate documentation and the
    migration note record this.

The decoder has no unit test, and I would rather say why than leave it
looking covered. No WASM decoder in this package has one: jest's
^@cornerstonejs/(.*)$ mapping rewrites codec packages to packages/<name>/src
and takes precedence over a virtual mock, so faking the codec means changing the
jest config. That did not seem proportionate for one decoder. The substance that
is testable without the codec - the signedness rule - is covered in
getPixelData.spec.ts.

OpenJPH now tolerates a truncated codestream instead of throwing on it
(@cornerstonejs/codec-openjph 2.4.10), so a partial byte range no longer
has to be decoded at a reduced resolution and scaled back up.

An explicit decodeLevel of 0 on a range or streaming retrieve now means
"decode at full resolution from whatever has arrived". Such an image is
reported as LOSSY rather than SUBRESOLUTION, since it is full size and
only the codestream is incomplete; it stays lossless only when the whole
frame fit in the first chunk. The default range chunk drops from 64k to
32k, which is enough to put a recognisable full resolution image up.

The sub-resolution fallback ladders in the examples existed only because
partial decode used to throw, so they are gone. Sub-resolution plus
scaling is still the right route for the JLS thumbnails, and that path is
untouched.

Also repoints the stack progressive example at the rendition names that
static DICOMweb's `createdicomweb alternates` actually writes (htj2k/,
htj2kLossy/) instead of the retired mkdicomweb ones, and drops the HTJ2K
thumbnail button, which has no rendition to retrieve.

Resolves the pnpm-lock.yaml conflict by taking main's lockfile and
re-resolving only the codec bumps on top of it, then running prettier
over it. The lockfile in this repo is prettier-formatted, which pnpm's
own writer does not preserve, so an unformatted install shows up as a
~16k line rewrite that buries the real change and trips the audit gate.
The lockfile delta against main is now 125 lines: the four codecs and
browserslist.

Adds a browserslist override to clear the two high advisories that were
failing the Security Audit step (GHSA-c83g-rgw3-j3cx and
GHSA-73wf-gq98-2v4g). The gate only runs when pnpm-lock.yaml changes,
which is why main is green while this branch was not.
…amples to htj2k/

Addresses PR review on #2890.

Dropping the decode-level shortcut at level 0 left nothing pacing repeat
decodes of an incomplete frame: the level never changes at full
resolution, so every network chunk triggered another full frame decode
and render. An 8MB frame over 128k streaming reads was ~64 of them.
The brake is now how much new codestream arrived rather than the level,
so that same frame settles at ~10 decodes while a small frame still
refines on the chunk after its first. Sub-resolution behaviour is
unchanged - those still only redecode when the level itself improves.
The decision is extracted as shouldDecodeAgain and unit tested.

htj2kStackBasic and htj2kVolumeBasic never set a framesPath, so their
HTJ2K configurations were reading primary frames/ - which is JPEG-LS for
both of these studies - and so exercised no HTJ2K path at all. They now
retrieve from htj2k/ like the progressive examples do, and their doc
comments name the createdicomweb commands that actually build those
renditions.

Documents both downstream-visible changes: the range chunkSize default
is 32kb rather than 64kb for every transfer syntax, not just HTJ2K, and
truncated HTJ2K decoding needs codec-openjph 2.4.10, which matters to
anyone deduping it to an older copy.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Main's #2896 landed the same browserslist override this branch was
carrying, and raised fast-uri past the four advisories that appeared
since the last merge, so the local browserslist block is dropped rather
than left as a duplicate YAML key. The lockfile is again taken from main
and re-resolved for the codec bumps alone, then prettier formatted; the
delta against main is 44 lines, all codecs.
…ottle partial decodes

Replaces the growth-factor brake with the two things that actually
govern this: how much data each fetch adds, and how often a decode is
allowed to run.

  initialChunkSize  32k    byte range for the first decode
  chunkSize         128k   each range after the first, and the streaming
                           accumulation threshold
  msBetweenDecode   500    minimum gap between decodes of one partial image

The first range stays small because 32k of HTJ2K is enough for a usable
full resolution decode and the point is time to first image. Later
ranges are larger because the image is already up and the point is
refinement, where 32k steps would only mean more requests for the same
result. Range boundaries follow: the end of range n is now
initialChunkSize + n * chunkSize.

Chunk size alone does not bound decode cost - 128k arrives in a few
milliseconds on a local server, so a large frame would still decode
dozens of times, work that costs far more than the receive it keeps up
with and that no display can show. The clock bounds that, timed from the
end of the previous decode so a slow decode does not immediately qualify
the chunk behind it. A completed image is always decoded, so only
intermediate versions are ever delayed, and sub-resolution decoding is
exempt - it stays bound by the level improving instead.

streamRequest's untyped minChunkSize becomes this chunkSize, keeping the
old name as an alias, so the streaming and range paths are configured
the same way rather than by two different knobs.

Note chunkSize changes meaning: it used to size the first range. Example
configurations that set it to 32k are updated - left alone they would
have shrunk every subsequent range to 32k - and the migration notes call
out the rename.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
streamableTransferSyntaxes gates every partial decode and was undocumented,
which left the impression that a smaller initial range could lower quality on
any transfer syntax. It cannot: a non-HTJ2K partial buffer is not decoded at
all, so the frame is decoded once when complete and a smaller first range costs
a round trip rather than quality. Corrects the migration note accordingly and
records the three HTJ2K UIDs, that decodeLevel is HTJ2K-only, and that the list
is a constant rather than a setting.
… Image Frame Compression

Adds two transfer syntaxes and corrects the JPEG XL UIDs.

Encapsulated Uncompressed Explicit VR Little Endian
(1.2.840.10008.1.2.1.98) compresses nothing - it exists so uncompressed
pixel data can use the encapsulated format, one frame per fragment, so
a frame is addressable without reading the whole Pixel Data element
(PS3.5 A.4.11). Decoding is trimming the fragment padding and reading
the rest as Explicit VR Little Endian.

Deflated Image Frame Compression (1.2.840.10008.1.2.8.1) deflates each
frame separately with raw DEFLATE per RFC 1951 - no zlib header or
Adler-32 - encapsulated one fragment per frame (PS3.5 A.4.13). Raw is
load bearing, so it is pako.inflateRaw; a test pins that a zlib wrapped
stream is rejected. This is per frame, unlike 1.2.840.10008.1.2.1.99,
which deflates the whole data set and is inflated by dicomParser before
any frame reaches the decoder.

Both pad - encapsulated fragments to an even length, and deflate with a
trailing NULL when its stream is odd - so both trim to the frame's
native pixel length. A frame shorter than its pixel data throws rather
than rendering partially.

Also fixes a latent bug this surfaced: a single frame image carries no
NumberOfFrames, which framesAreFragmented compared against the fragment
count and read as fragmented, falling back to a scan for JPEG SOI
markers. That scan finds nothing in a syntax that is not JPEG. It now
defaults to 1, so a conformant single frame image of any encapsulated
syntax takes the direct fragment path.

JPEG XL: image/jxl mapped to 1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.140, which is not a
JPEG XL UID. Supplement 232 assigns .110 lossless, .111 JPEG
recompression and .112 general, and PS3.18 Table 8.7.3-5 makes .110 the
default for image/jxl absent a transfer-syntax parameter. Also adds
application/x-deflate from that table. JPEG XL pixel data still does
not decode - see the PR description.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to c811f

This change adds new image decoding and progressive retrieval behavior, but valid color frames may fail to load and crafted deflated frames may consume excessive memory before validation. Metadata, type-contract, and migration-documentation issues also remain unresolved, so these concerns should be addressed before merge.

Reject present NumberOfFrames values of zero before fragment classification.

With an empty Basic Offset Table, intString('x00280008') returns 0, but || 1 changes it to 1. If the dataset has one fragment, framesAreFragmented then selects the single-frame extraction path and returns that fragment. Use ?? 1 for an absent value and reject present non-positive values.

Calculate the native length for YBR_FULL_422 correctly.

Line 12 treats all three nominal samples as stored samples. YBR_FULL_422 stores two Y samples plus shared Cb/Cr values for each pixel pair. A valid 2x2 8-bit frame is 8 bytes, but this function expects 12 bytes. Both new decoder paths then reject the frame as truncated. The DICOM native-format rule defines this as a special size calculation. (dicom.nema.org)

Use two stored samples per pixel position when imageFrame.photometricInterpretation === 'YBR_FULL_422'. Add regression cases for both new decoder routes.

Proposed fix
 export function nativeFrameLength(imageFrame: Types.IImageFrame): number {
   const { rows, columns, samplesPerPixel, bitsAllocated } = imageFrame;
-  const samples = rows * columns * samplesPerPixel;
+  const samples =
+    imageFrame.photometricInterpretation === 'YBR_FULL_422'

…s a number

chunkSize is declared as `number | ((metadata) => number)`, and the
streaming path read it directly. A function is truthy, so it passed the
`||` chain and landed in `lastSize + minChunkSize`, making that
comparison NaN and disabling the accumulation threshold altogether -
every received chunk decoded, which is the opposite of what configuring
chunkSize was meant to do.

rangeRequest already had a metadata-aware reader for exactly this, so
that is extracted as getRetrieveValue and both paths now share it,
rather than the two readers drifting again. It also covers the
deprecated minChunkSize alias, which is not declared on the option
types.

Also corrects the migration note on what happens when a truncated
decode fails. ProgressiveRetrieveImages chains stages through `next` per
image ID, so a retry only happens when a later stage selects the same
image: sequential and interleaved stages both do (the latter via its
catch-all errorRetrieve stage), but singleRetrieveStages - the default -
has one stage with its errorRetrieve commented out, and a hand-written
configuration selecting disjoint images behaves the same way. A lost
frame is reported through the listener's errorCallback rather than being
uncaught.

…deflate

This branch lands after #2890, so it builds on it. The migration notes
conflict was two additive sections; both are kept, with the progressive
one first since it merges first.
@cornerstonejs/codec-libjxl 1.1.0 is published, so the three JPEG XL
transfer syntaxes whose UIDs this branch already corrected now decode:
.110 lossless, .111 JPEG recompression and .112 general. One decoder
covers all three - they differ in what the encoder was allowed to do,
not in how the codestream is read (PS3.5 A.4.12).

Two details from the codec that would be easy to get wrong:

JPEG XL has no signed sample type, so the decoder always reports
isSigned false and signedness has to come from PixelRepresentation.
That is the arrangement JPEG-LS already uses, so the existing
signedOverride argument to the shared getPixelData carries it, and a
test pins a 16 bit frame reading as Int16Array on the override alone -
trusting the frame info there would render signed CT as large positive
values.

The codec closes its input up front and throws on a truncated
codestream, so JPEG XL is deliberately NOT added to
streamableTransferSyntaxes: a partial JPEG XL buffer must wait for the
frame rather than be handed to a decoder that will reject it. The format
does support progressive decoding, but this build does not use libjxl's
SetProgressiveDetail/FlushImage path. Both the gate documentation and
the migration note say so.

The decoder itself has no unit test. No WASM decoder in this package
does, because jest's `^@cornerstonejs/(.*)$` mapping rewrites codec
packages to packages/<name>/src and takes precedence over a virtual
mock, so mocking the codec means changing the jest config. That did not
seem worth doing for one decoder; the substance that is testable without
the codec - the signedness rule - is covered.

Reject a present non-positive NumberOfFrames value. When dataSet.intString('x00280008') returns 0, || 1 changes it to 1. For an encapsulated dataset with an empty Basic Offset Table and one fragment, getPixelData then returns that fragment as frame 0 instead of rejecting the invalid dataset.

Bound raw-DEFLATE output before trimming the frame. For transfer syntax 1.2.840.10008.1.2.8.1, the worker passes supplied pixelData to decodeDeflatedFrame, which calls pako’s one-shot inflateRaw without an output limit. trimToNativeFrame runs only after the complete output exists. A valid highly expanding frame can therefore allocate excessive worker memory and disrupt decoding. Use a bounded streaming inflate that stops when output exceeds the native-frame size plus permitted padding.

🌐 Web query:

According to current TypeScript type-compatibility rules, is (metadata: unknown, imageId: string) => numberassignable to(metadata: unknown) => number?

💡 Result:

Yes, under current TypeScript type-compatibility rules, the function type (metadata: unknown, imageId: string) => number is assignable to (metadata: unknown) => number [1][2]. In TypeScript, functions with fewer parameters are generally assignable to functions with more parameters, provided the corresponding parameter types are compatible [1][2]. More specifically, a source function type is assignable to a target function type if the source has no more required parameters than the target [2]. Because the target function (metadata: unknown) => number requires only one parameter and the source function (metadata: unknown, imageId: string) => number can be called with that single argument (the second argument simply being ignored at runtime), this assignment is permitted [1][2]. This behavior reflects common JavaScript patterns where callbacks are often invoked with multiple arguments, but the implementation may only require one or two [3][1]. TypeScript allows this by design to avoid forcing developers to explicitly declare unused parameters in callbacks [3][1].

site:typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/2/functions.html assigning functions parameter count source target extra required parameters

💡 Result:

In programming, the assignability of functions based on their parameter counts is determined by the principle of contravariance regarding function arguments. Specifically, a function with fewer parameters can generally be assigned to a variable or passed to a higher-order function that expects a function with more parameters, provided the parameter types are compatible [1]. This behavior exists because a function that requires fewer inputs is considered more flexible or general; it can safely be called with the arguments intended for the more specific function, while simply ignoring the extra arguments [1]. Key points regarding this behavior: 1. Parameter Count Flexibility: Functions with fewer parameters (of compatible types) can always be used in place of functions with more parameters [1]. 2. Extra Arguments: In many languages, such as JavaScript and TypeScript, if a function is called with more arguments than it defines, the extra arguments are simply ignored at runtime [1]. 3. Type Safety: While a function with fewer parameters can be assigned to a type expecting more, the reverse is generally not true. A function that requires more parameters cannot satisfy a requirement for a function that expects fewer, as it would lead to missing arguments (undefined parameters) at call time [1]. This rule is a standard feature in many statically typed languages that support function subtyping, as it preserves type safety while allowing for functional flexibility.

Expose imageId in both retrieve-size callback types.

getRetrieveValue invokes the callback with metaData and imageId. A callback that requires imageId is not assignable to the current one-parameter type. Add imageId: string to chunkSize and initialChunkSize, preferably through a shared callback type.

Describe retries for incomplete decodes accurately.

When extractDone is false, loadImageFromNetwork suppresses a createImage decode error and continues consuming chunks, so a truncated HTJ2K frame can retry within the active retrieve stage. Only decode errors after extractDone is true propagate to ProgressiveRetrieveImages, where next may select a later stage or the image may receive a permanent error. Update the retry guidance to reflect this distinction.

…syntaxes

decoders_test.ts decodes every lossless re-encoding of CTImage.dcm and
compares it pixel for pixel with the uncompressed original, which is the
strongest test available for a decoder - a plausible but wrong image
fails. It had stopped running, so it now covers the three syntaxes this
branch adds.

Four things had to be fixed before it could run at all:

- karma.conf.js never loaded it. `files` and `preprocessors` glob only
  packages/{core,tools}/test/**, so only testImages was ever served. The
  file is listed individually rather than globbed because the rest of
  packages/dicomImageLoader/test predates the move to jasmine.
- It was written for mocha - before(), chai should() - against a jasmine
  runner, including a `.should(message)` call that is not a chai API.
  Converted to beforeAll/expect.
- `uncompressedimage` (lowercase i) threw a ReferenceError that
  .catch(done) turned into an opaque failure, and before() called done()
  without awaiting createImage, so the first test could have run against
  a null baseline anyway.
- The fixture URL was /base/testImages/, which is not served; karma
  serves the repository under /base, so the path needs the package
  directory. Two other suites in that directory have the same bug.

It now loads through the registered image loader and the naturalized
metadata cache rather than driving createImage from a parsed data set, so
it exercises the same path an application does.

Fixtures are transcoded from CTImage.dcm by testImages/make-fixtures.py,
which round-trips every file it writes and refuses to leave one behind
that does not match the source. CTImage.dcm is signed, so the JPEG XL
fixture is the end to end proof that signedness is taken from
PixelRepresentation and not from the codec, which always reports
unsigned.

Two syntaxes are reported pending rather than dropped, both pre-existing
and neither related to this branch: Deflated Explicit VR Little Endian,
because the naturalized path hands a raw ArrayBuffer to
addDicomPart10Instance without inflating it first, and JPEG Lossless
Process 14 SV1, whose decoder does not reproduce the source exactly.

…ntaxes

Adds ColorImage.dcm - kodim23 from the Kodak True Color suite, 768x512
interleaved RGB, PlanarConfiguration 0 - and colour fixtures for the
three syntaxes this branch adds, taken from the corpus published by
viewer-testdata-dicomweb#8.

Colour is not a repeat of the grayscale coverage for these three. Three
samples per pixel changes the frame length arithmetic that encapsulated
uncompressed and deflated frames both rely on, and JPEG XL colour is a
different code path in the codec from JPEG XL grayscale - it was the
largest untested part of the JPEG XL decoder. A channel that is dropped,
reordered or offset by a wrong colour transform now shows up as a
difference against the uncompressed original, reported as pixel and
channel.

Only these three are duplicated in colour rather than all twelve
syntaxes: the older ones already have grayscale coverage here and their
colour handling is unchanged by this branch, and each uncompressed
colour fixture costs about 1.2MB.

make-fixtures.py now takes the base image as an argument and defaults to
both, so the two sets are generated the same way and both still verify
that every file round-trips before it is written.

Kodim23 is released for unrestricted use and is not medical data - a
photographic test image in a synthetic Secondary Capture header, with the
attribution recorded in each file's (0008,2111) DerivationDescription.

…capsulated uncompressed

Picks the colour cases per decoder rather than per syntax, since that is
what actually differs:

  .57  decodeJPEGLossless, a JavaScript decoder
  .80  decodeJPEGLS, charls, which has interleave modes
  .201 decodeHTJ2K, OpenJPH, stored YBR_RCT so the codec has to undo the
       reversible colour transform to return RGB
  .110 decodeJPEGXL, libjxl, three channels rather than one
  .8.1 the inflate path, where three samples per pixel changes the frame
       length arithmetic

This is the suite's first HTJ2K coverage of any kind, colour or
grayscale, which is worth noting given how much recent work depends on
that decoder.

Encapsulated uncompressed loses its colour case: its fragment holds the
same native little endian pixel data Explicit VR LE already carries, so
the case re-tested the base image rather than a decoder, for 1.2MB. Net
change to the fixtures is about +0.4MB.

The .57, .80 and .201 fixtures are taken from viewer-testdata's
colorEncode corpus rather than generated here - that corpus already
verifies all twelve of its encodings decode to a single reference, and I
checked each against it again before copying.

…colour

HTJ2K had no test in this suite at all before the colour case, which is
worth closing given how much recent work rests on that decoder.

Nothing in the Python stack encodes HTJ2K - imagecodecs' OpenJPEG build
decodes it but will not write it - so the fixture is produced by
make-htj2k-fixture.mjs using the OpenJPH already installed as
@cornerstonejs/codec-openjph. Encoding and decoding with the same
implementation would let a matched encoder/decoder bug pass unnoticed,
so the script verifies the result through OpenJPEG before keeping it,
and deletes the file if it does not round-trip.

Also records what is known about the pending 4.70 case: the failure is
specific to the grayscale path, since the same syntax decodes correctly
in colour, and a fix is expected from an upstream codec update.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The note said the failure was the grayscale path. It is narrower than
that: viewer-testdata's SV1 frame of the same shape and depth decodes
with zero differences, and so does this syntax in colour. What separates
them is the encoder - DCMTK 3.6.1 for this fixture against dcm4che for
the corpus - and exactly one sample is wrong, the last. pydicom reads
the same frame correctly.

The pending 1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.70 case: root-caused and fixed upstream

The note on that pending case guessed it was "a stream some decoders tolerate and this one does not". It is narrower and more definite than that — a real decoder bug, now fixed.

jpeg-lossless-decoder-js 2.1.2 drops the final sample of any frame whose last Huffman code ends exactly on a byte boundary. Its three end-of-scan guards test index < markerIndex (9); once the 0xFF introducing EOI has been shifted into temp, only index - 8 bits are real data, so consuming the last of them leaves index === 8 — a legal decode that those guards reject, abandoning the scan one sample early. T.81 B.1.1.2 pads only an incomplete final byte, so a scan that tiles its last byte exactly is perfectly legal, and DCMTK writes one whenever a frame ends in a run of a single value. That is why the DCMTK-encoded fixture here failed while dcm4che's SV1 frame of the same shape and depth in viewer-testdata did not: not the encoder being sloppy, just whether the last byte happens to come out full.

Fixed in cornerstonejs/JPEGLosslessDecoderJS@03bb80c, which replaces all three guard sites with a named readPastEntropyData putting the boundary at index < 8 and drops the isLastPixel() special case that had been papering over the same off-by-one at one of them.

Verified against this branch's suite

I enabled the pending case and ran decoders_test.ts in headless Chrome twice, changing only which build webpack resolves for jpeg-lossless-decoder-js:

decoder build result
published 2.1.2 (as depended on today) 16 passed, 1 failed — JPEGProcess14SV1TransferSyntax: pixel 262143 is -1024, expected -3024
the fixed build (as vendored by cornerstonejs/codecs#94) 17 passed, 0 failed, karma exit 0

Pixel 262143 is the last of 512x512 and the fixture is RescaleIntercept -1024 / slope 1, so those are stored samples 0 and -2000 — exactly the "one sample wrong, the last one" the pending note recorded. Every other case in both the grayscale and colour suites stayed green with the fixed build, including grayscale and colour .57, which go through the same decoder.

What this PR should do about it

Nothing yet, and the test change is not committed here. dicomImageLoader depends on jpeg-lossless-decoder-js@2.1.2 directly, so there is no path by which the fix reaches this branch: enabling the case now would just turn a documented pending into a red CI. The options, in the order I would rank them:

  1. Publish the fork (as jpeg-lossless-decoder-js or under a scoped name) and bump the dependency here. Cleanest, and the only one that does not leave a build artifact in a repo. A git-URL dependency is not a real option — this is a runtime dependency of a published package.
  2. Route .57/.70 through @cornerstonejs/dicom-codec, which already carries the fixed build after fix(dicom-codec): decode the last pixel of byte-aligned JPEG Lossless scans codecs#94. Removes a direct dependency, but it is a decoder-wiring change well outside this PR.
  3. Vendor the built bundle here too, as codecs did. Fastest, least appealing to carry in two repos.

Until one of those lands, the pending entry is worth updating so it records the actual cause rather than the encoder-tolerance guess — I can push that alone if you want it in this PR.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

The pending note guessed this was a stream some decoders tolerate and this one
does not. It is a decoder bug, and a specific one: jpeg-lossless-decoder-js
2.1.2 drops the final sample of any frame whose last Huffman code ends exactly
on a byte boundary. Its end-of-scan guards test `index < markerIndex` (9), but
once the 0xFF introducing EOI has been shifted into `temp` only `index - 8`
bits are data, so consuming the last of them leaves `index === 8` - a legal
decode those guards reject, abandoning the scan one sample early. T.81 B.1.1.2
pads only an incomplete final byte, so a scan that tiles its last byte exactly
is legal, and DCMTK writes one whenever a frame ends in a run of one value.
That is what separates this DCMTK fixture from viewer-testdata's dcm4che SV1
frame of the same shape and depth, not encoder tolerance.

Fixed upstream in cornerstonejs/JPEGLosslessDecoderJS@03bb80c, which replaces
all three guard sites with a named readPastEntropyData putting the boundary at
`index < 8` and drops the isLastPixel special case that was covering the same
off-by-one at one of them.

Verified by running this suite in headless Chrome against both builds, changing
only which one webpack resolves: published 2.1.2 gives 16 passed / 1 failed
("pixel 262143 is -1024, expected -3024" - the last of 512x512, at
RescaleIntercept -1024, so stored samples 0 against -2000), and the fixed build
gives 17 passed / 0 failed. Grayscale and colour .57 go through the same module
and stay green.

CI CAVEAT: dicomImageLoader depends on jpeg-lossless-decoder-js@2.1.2 directly
and nothing here changes that, so this case fails until the dependency carries
the fix - by a release of the fork, by routing .57/.70 through
@cornerstonejs/dicom-codec (which vendors the fixed build as of
cornerstonejs/codecs#94), or by vendoring it here too. Enabled now rather than
left pending so the gap is a red test naming its cause instead of a note
nobody re-checks.

Correction to my comment above: the test change is now pushed (a41a7b2) rather than held back.

So 1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.70 is an active case in decoders_test.ts instead of a pending one, and it will be red in CI until dicomImageLoader actually gets a fixed jpeg-lossless-decoder-js — the dependency is still 2.1.2 and this commit does not touch it. That is deliberate: a failing case that names its cause is harder to lose track of than a pending note. The three ways to make it green are unchanged and listed above; publishing the fork is still the cleanest.

If you would rather this branch stayed green while the dependency question is settled, reverting that one commit puts the case back to pending.

… base

JPEG Baseline is the one syntax in this suite that libjpeg-turbo decodes, so
without a case for it the codec had no coverage here at all - every entry in
the lossless list goes to a different decoder. The case has to be lossy, so it
asserts a per sample bound rather than equality, in a third describe block
kept apart from the two bit-exact ones.

Neither existing base image works for it:

  CTImage.dcm is 16 bit while JPEG Baseline is an 8 bit process, so the
  fixture would be an 8 bit frame compared against 16 bit CT values. That is
  not one value space, and it is why the older lossyImagesDecoding_test.ts
  needed a tolerance of 100 and left a TODO against the number.

  ColorImage.dcm never reaches the codec. decodeImageFrame.ts sends 8 bit .50
  with three or four samples per pixel to the browser's own JPEG decoder, so a
  colour fixture measures the browser instead of libjpeg-turbo.

So this adds GrayImage.dcm, kodim23 converted to BT.601 luminance - the same
weights a JPEG encoder uses for its own Y channel, so the image stays natural -
as 768x512 8 bit MONOCHROME2 with its own SOP Instance UID. The attribution
travels with it in DerivationDescription, as it does for every other file
derived from that image.

Against a matched base the bound means something. The encode is quality 90,
whose worst sample lands 14 off; the test asserts 20, which leaves room for two
libjpeg derived decoders to differ slightly through their IDCT without making
the bound useless. That is a bound which would catch a real numeric
regression, unlike 100.

make-fixtures.py grows a LOSSY_TARGETS table, a Pillow based encoder for .50,
and a tolerance branch in verify(), because the existing check tests for exact
equality and so would reject any lossy fixture by definition. It derives
GrayImage.dcm on demand, and builds .50 only for a base that is 8 bit and
single sample, which is the combination that reaches the codec.

Verified against both codec-libjpeg-turbo-8bit 1.2.5, the published build, and
a local 1.2.6 build of libjpeg-turbo 3.2.0, so the case does not depend on the
pending codec release.

…eleases

  codec-charls              1.2.6  -> 1.2.7
  codec-libjpeg-turbo-8bit  1.2.5  -> 1.2.7
  codec-libjxl              1.1.0  -> 1.1.1
  codec-openjpeg            1.3.3  -> 1.3.6
  codec-openjph             2.4.10 -> 2.4.11

pnpm-workspace.yaml sets minimumReleaseAge to 2880 minutes, and four of the
five are younger than that, so the install refused them with
ERR_PNPM_NO_MATURE_MATCHING_VERSION. minimumReleaseAgeExclude already carried
the five previous pins for the same reason, so this moves those five entries
forward rather than lowering or disabling the age check.

The lock file is written back through prettier. The committed file is prettier
formatted, and pnpm rewrites it into its own compact form, which turns a five
package bump into a diff of about 16000 lines. Reformatting keeps the diff to
the versions and their integrity hashes, and changes nothing pnpm reads.

Verified: pnpm install --frozen-lockfile succeeds on the result, which is what
CI runs. The decoder suite is unchanged by the bump - 17 cases pass and
JPEGProcess14SV1 (.70) fails, both before and after, so that failure belongs
to jpeg-lossless-decoder-js 2.1.2 and not to any codec here.

Note that the published codec-libjpeg-turbo-8bit 1.2.7 is still the 2.1.x
build; its decode wasm is 180508 bytes, against 299002 for a local build of
libjpeg-turbo 3.2.0. The 3.x upgrade is still open in cornerstonejs/codecs#79.

…er override

`pnpm test` runs every browser test and takes several minutes. `pnpm
test:decoders` runs packages/dicomImageLoader/test/decoders_test.ts alone,
which takes about one minute.

The script also accepts `--jpeg-lossless-build <path>`, or the environment
variable JPEG_LOSSLESS_BUILD, which points webpack at a different build of
jpeg-lossless-decoder-js. dicomImageLoader depends on that decoder directly, so
a fix in the decoder reaches cornerstone3D through a version bump only. The
override lets a person test such a fix before its release.

Verified against cornerstonejs/codecs#94, which carries the fix for the
1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.70 case:

  no override                       17 passed, 1 failed (exit 1)
  --jpeg-lossless-build <PR 94>     18 passed, 0 failed (exit 0)

The fix is in the fork @cornerstonejs/jpeg-lossless-decoder-js, not in a
newer 2.1.2, so the dependency is swapped rather than upgraded. The karma
--jpeg-lossless-build alias moves with the import, or it would silently
match nothing.

…-uncompressed-deflate

Main now holds #2890, the squash of fix/progressive-render. This branch
carried six earlier commits of that work, so the progressive loading
sources, examples and docs take the main version. The two docs pages keep
the JPEG XL notes of this branch.

The codec overrides from main pinned the older codecs. They now match the
versions that packages/dicomImageLoader pins. The lockfile starts from main,
with the codec entries of this branch, and jpeg-lossless-decoder-js 2.1.2
and its orphaned rollup binary removed.

…ter the merge

Main moved DEFAULT_MS_BETWEEN_DECODE into internal/retrieveDefaults.ts, and
loadImage.ts imports it from there. The merge of origin/main kept the local
declaration from the older progressive commits of this branch, so babel
stopped with "Duplicate declaration" and every suite that loads loadImage.ts
failed.
