See DICOM part 3, 4, 10, 11, and 12 - start with annex F in part 3.

Btw, the DCMTK tools "dcmgpdir" and "dcmmkdir" can be used to create a DICOMDIR according to a particular application profile.

Is the dicomdir a file that contain studies ?. I tried to use your example but he only creates a dicomdir with little information.
can I with the dicomdir to get sequece of numbers that identify the images with the porpuse to get the complete series of the patient in the loading ?

How do I store this studies?, what are the functions?.

I am very sorry, but this is a forum about DCMTK, and not intended to give free support for general DICOM related questions. There is lots of material about DICOM available in the Internet. Start with the Medical Image FAQ and, if you don't find anything related to your question, re-post it in the Usenet DICOM discussion forum at comp.protocols.dicom.
