dump2dcm SQ data

[rbeaulieu]

Hi,

I call dump2dcm.exe with a input text file (with DCMDICPATH set properly). The output file is generated when I remove the lines with data of type SQ. Can you help me to understand why the output generation wont pass while these 'SQ' four lines aren't removed?

Regards!

Regent.

Obviously, the sequence delimitation item is missing. So, dump a (binary) DICOM file and you see what I mean.

Thank you.

The text can now be generate as .wl without error. I have to test it with the acuson X300 modality, but I am optimistic.

Bests regards!
