HDICOMDS hDS; |
/* a DICOM handle */ |
|
pDICOMELEMENT pElement; |
/* pointer to a DICOMELEMENT structure */ |

/* index value */ |

Deletes one or more images from a Pixel Data element.
|
Parameter |
Description |
|
hDS |
A DICOM handle. |
|
pElement |
Pointer to a DICOMELEMENT structure within the Data Set. |
|
nIndex |
Position of the first frame to delete. Use zero-based indexing. For example, if there are 10 bitmaps in a list, the index of the last one is 9. You can delete the last image in the Pixel Data Element by setting this to ELEMENT_INDEX_MAX. |
|
nCount |
Number of frames to delete from the Pixel Data Element. |
Returns
|
0 |
SUCCESS |
|
>0 |
An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes. |
Comments
As an example, if you wish to delete 50 images starting with the 50th frame in the Pixel Data, call this function with nIndex set to 49 (the 50th frame in a zero-based index) and nCount set to 50.
Most DICOM files will only have one Data Element of type TAG_PIXEL_DATA. Therefore, in most instances you can set pElement to NULL, since the function will automatically delete the image(s) from the only Pixel Data Element in the file. If pElement is not NULL, it must point to the Pixel Data Element itself.
If the DICOM file is CLASS_BASIC_DIRECTORY, the file may contain more than one Pixel Data Element. In this case you must specify in pElement the Pixel Data Element from to delete the image(s).
