How to convert WinBioCaptureSample to an image

My problem is this: I'm given a data structure of binary data of type WINBIO_BIR_DATA (http://207.46.172.252/en-us/library/dd401649(VS.85).aspx) which is a c struct I believe. How would I convert it to an image?

It seems it give me some kind of size? Anyone have any ideas on how to convert this into an image I can parse and use?

The WINBIO_BIR_DATA is for vendor-specific data.

If you want an image, it'll be in the WINBIO_BIR's StandardDataBlock if the HeaderBlock's Type is set to WINBIO_ANSI_381_FORMAT_TYPE.

If you want to convert an ANSI 381 image to a DIB, you can probably find enough information online to close the gap.
