DICOM Header parsing using pixelMed

Question

Am trying to read DICOM Header using pixelMed Library. Here's the code snippet.

try {
    DicomInputStream dis = new DicomInputStream
                             (new ByteArrayInputStream(dicomHeaderBytes));
    AttributeList attributeList = new AttributeList();
    attributeList.setDecompressPixelData(false);
    attributeList.read(dis);
    attributeList.removeUnsafePrivateAttributes();
    /* Iterating over attribute List */
    for(Map.Entry<AttributeTag,Attribute> entry : attributeList.entrySet()){
            AttributeTag key = entry.getKey();
            Attribute value = entry.getValue();
            String vr = value.getVRAsString();
            String description = "";
    }
} catch (Exception e) {
    Log.error("Exception occurred", e);
}

How to read the description of dicom tags. Ex: For tag: 0008,0020, the description should be "Study Date".

Answer 1

使用 pixelMed 的“DicomDictionary”类，我能够通过传递 AttributeTag 来检索标签描述。

String tagDescription = dicomDictionary.getFullNameFromTag(new AttributeTag(int, int));
