SR ValueType TABLE

[junjie.tang]

Hi,

I have two questions about SR

1,I've encounted the SR ValueType in the DICOM standard,and there are tags related to TABLE(like(0040,A801)https://dicom.innolitics.com/ciods/enha ... 0/0040a801),but i couldn't find them in the dcmtk header files,nor could i find the macro definitions for the tags. can i implement insert a table into SR?

2,i read a paperhttp://www.dclunie.com/papers/DICOM_201 ... orting.pdfabout SR,in page 16,the annotations are displayed on the IMAGE,but,when i write a SR like this and load it by DICOMscope,annotations are not visible .I would like to know what tools can be used to load SR and achieve such an effect.

Thanks

Re. 1: DCMTK's data dictionary defines all required Attributes for the SR Content Item Value Type "TABLE". However, the dcmsr module does not yet implement support for it, as you can read in DCMTK issue #955. The TABLE type is quite complex and so far the priority has not been that high. Of course, you could sponsor development if this feature is important for you (also see this old blog posting on "How are new features added to the DCMTK?").

Re. 2: DICOMscope does not support rendering of SR-defined "annotations" on images. You would have to create a GSPS (presentation state) for this purpose. Maybe, Weasis supports it directly.
