 * ``Threads`` specifies the number of threads that are used by the
   plugin to decode the DICOM images.
+* ``EnableGdcm`` specifies whether `GDCM
+  <https://sourceforge.net/projects/gdcm/>`__ should be used to decode
+  DICOM images, replacing the built-in decoder of Orthanc that
+  internally uses `DCMTK <http://dicom.offis.de/dcmtk.php.en>`__.
+  This is notably necessary to deal with DICOM images encoded using
+  `JPEG2000 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG_2000>`__, as this
+  format is not readily supported by the core version of DCMTK.  By
+  default, this option is set to ``true``.
+
+As a complement to the ``EnableGdcm`` option, you also have the
+possibility to restrict the GDCM decoder to some specific `transfer
+syntaxes
+<http://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/html/part05.html#chapter_10>`__
+using the ``RestrictTransferSyntaxes`` option.  For instance, the
+following configuration would use GDCM to decode JPEG 2000 images,
+while using DCMTK to decode the other transfer syntaxes::
