pylibjpeg-libjpeg

pylibjpeg-libjpeg is a Python wrapper for the `libjpeg` C library, designed primarily to function as a plugin for the `pylibjpeg` framework, which in turn provides JPEG decoding capabilities for `pydicom`. It enables Python applications to decode various JPEG formats, including JPEG Baseline, Extended, Lossless (Process 14), JPEG-LS Lossless, and Lossy. The library is actively maintained, with the current version being 2.4.0, and typically sees updates for Python version compatibility and `libjpeg` upgrades every few months to a year.
