I am testing a new IOD and I want to create a new DataSet its Storage SOP. Is that possible with DCMTK?
What i really want is to insert a new SOP UID for Storage in the Meta File Header and in the dataset created by editing a dump file. I have used dcmdump.exe and dump2dcm.exe tools without good results.
Example:
I have tried dump2dcm the following text file
---------------------
# Dicom-File-Format
# Dicom-Meta-Information-Header
# Used TransferSyntax: LittleEndianExplicit
(0002,0000) UL 184 # 4, 1 MetaElementGroupLength
(0002,0001) OB 00\01 # 2, 1 FileMetaInformationVersion
(0002,0002) UI =[1.2.840.10008.5.1.4.1.1.66.5] # 28, 1 MediaStorageSOPClassUID
(0002,0003) UI [1.3.12.2.1107.5.1.4.38364.4.0.2204104785261335] # 46, 1 MediaStorageSOPInstanceUID
(0002,0010) UI =LittleEndianExplicit # 20, 1 TransferSyntaxUID
(0002,0012) UI [1.3.12.2.1107.5.1.4] # 20, 1 ImplementationClassUID
(0002,0013) SH [SIEMENS_S5VA40A] # 16, 1 ImplementationVersionName
---------------------------
And the result after applying dcmdump to the outfile of the previous command is
---------------------------
# Dicom-Meta-Information-Header
# Used TransferSyntax: LittleEndianExplicit
(0002,0000) UL 164 # 4, 1 MetaElementGroupLength
(0002,0001) OB 00\01 # 2, 1 FileMetaInformationVersion
(0002,0002) UI (no value available) # 0, 0 MediaStorageSOPClassUID
(0002,0003) UI [1.3.12.2.1107.5.1.4.38364.4.0.2204104785261335] # 46, 1 MediaStorageSOPInstanceUID
(0002,0010) UI =LittleEndianExplicit # 20, 1 TransferSyntaxUID
(0002,0012) UI [1.2.276.0.7230010.3.0.3.5.4] # 28, 1 ImplementationClassUID
(0002,0013) SH [OFFIS_DCMTK_354] # 16, 1 ImplementationVersionName
---------------------------
As you can see in the Tag (0002,0002) the message (no value available) appears. Why? What does it mean? What should I do to construct Meta File Headers and Data Set with private SOP UIDs?
Thanks in advance and have a nice weekend!
Best,
Adrian
