Get VR value?

[xstreamsoftware]

Is it possible to get VR value if we know the tag . I've searched the whole documentation and i hardly found any information.Thanks in advance

Do you mean the VR of an attribute defined in the data dictionary or the VR of a data element contained in a DICOM data set?

VR of a data element in the DICOM data set.

What about DcmObject::getVR()?

Code: Select all

    /** return the value representation assigned to this object.
     *  If object was read from a stream, this method returns the VR
     *  that was defined in the stream for this object. It is, therefore,
     *  possible that the VR does not match the one defined in the data
     *  dictionary for the tag assigned to this object.
     *  @return VR of this object
     */
    DcmEVR getVR() const;
