An IDLffDICOM object contains the data for one or more images embedded in a DICOM Part 10 file. The API to the IDLffDICOM object provides accessor methods to the basic data elements of a DICOM file, namely the group/element tag, value representation, length, and data values. Additional methods deal with the file header preamble, data dictionary description for individual elements, and embedded sequences of elements. Most methods take a DICOM group/element tag as a parameter. An alternative parameter to the DICOM tag in some methods is the reference. A reference value is a LONG integer that is unique to each element in the DICOM object. This value can be used to directly access a specific element and to differentiate between elements in the DICOM file that have the same group/element tag. Valid reference values are always positive.
