Reading GE private sequence

[Sander Dekker]

Dear reader,

I am trying to read private GE ultrasound tags in a DICOM sequence. I have tried the following approach:

                    Dim tag = Dicom.DicomTag.Parse("7fe1,1008")

                    Dim dsSettings As DicomSequence = dcmFile.Dataset.[Get](Of DicomSequence)(tag)

The tag contains a sequence of 89 items that I would like to iterate through.

This returns "{"Tag: (7fe1,1008) not found in dataset"}". I used this method to retrieve the ImageRegion tags and there it works just fine. I am probably doing something wrong..

Thanks so much :)

Hi,

This returns Tag (7fe1,1008) not found in dataset just because this tag is not in the sample you posted! ;)

Thanks for your reply. The DICOM tag 7fe1,1008 is in the sample. DCMTK is able to extract it. Please see the attached text file.

hi,

sorry i didn't open the right file! :(

so you are right in c# to get the sequence here is a sample code

 DicomTag dt = new DicomTag(0x7fe1, 0x1001);
                dt.PrivateCreator = new DicomPrivateCreator("GEMS_Ultrasound_MovieGroup_001");
                DicomSequence sq= _file.Dataset.Get<DicomSequence>(dt);

Best regards,

Adil

I need some more time to test this. Thank you for your reply.
