As fas as I remember there were not really any switches.
Discussion was on adding DICOMDIR support to the command line
somehow.
Have you tried importing the images into the Orthanc DICOM
server and re-retrieving images from that as PNG ?
www.orthanc-server.com
There's a Debian package available.
Retrieval can be done with some simple Python.
If you get the images into that, and if you can display them
OK with the integrated browser based viewer, I can try to
help out with some Python code. For starters on that, go
here:
