[Image-SIG] window level and width

[Dr.Ashoka G K]

hi,
Many DICOM related softwares have a feature to alter window level and
window width of the images. Is this the same as changing the
brightness and contrast of the image?
If not, how does it differ?
Can it be implemented in PIL?
Thanks in advance for any help.
