DICOM @ OFFIS

Thanks Jörg !!

How can I know the VR type of an Implicit VR attribute if I know that group and element tag values? I guess there would be some method to get the VR using the data dictionary. I checked the DcmDictionary and related class. Isnt that really straightforward?

Hi Jörg,

Thank you very much for the prompt response. I took a look at the code and it seems to be exactly what I want. Will get back in case I have any issues.

I want to read all the elements existing in a DcmDataset object and add each element to another dataset which is my custom dataset. Sort of a converter which will convert a DCMTK DcmDataset object to my custom dataset object.

I have a custom dataset to which I need to copy the entire data in a dcmDataset. How do I loop thro the DcmDataset? Might sound as a trivial question. Also, do I need to check how the data is encoded in the DcmDataset? ImplicitVR, ExplicitVR?

Thanks for the replies. Will take a look at non blocking type of operation and will get back in case of any issues. I am surprised to know that it is rarely used. Why is it so? If you have a large number of images to be transferred, isnt the non blocking code the right way to do it. It seems that mo...

Hi, I would like to know if there is an async support for C STORE SCU in dcmtk. From my app, I would need to send a series of Images to a C STORE SCP and I want that operation to run asynchronously. I would not want to wait for the Store call to return....rather get an update callback which would gi...
