Hi,

Is it possible to access the data stored in private dicom tags?

For example, I have an RTPLAN file from Oncentra in which the (brachytherapy) prescription dose seems to be stored in a private tag:
(3007, 1000) Private tag data                    DS: "7.000000"

Is it possible to access this using dicompyler?

Thanks,

Matt

Hi Matt,

You can access the data stored in a DICOM tag (in the standard or private) this way:

ds[0x3007,0x1000].value

See https://pydicom.readthedocs.io/en/stable/pydicom_user_guide.html for more information, as this is a feature of pydicom.

Hope that helps,

Adit
