Comments

Use this method after calling LDicomDS::FindFirstPrivateCreatorDataElement to find any or all the Private Creator Data Elements in a DICOM data set.

The search for private creator data elements is on the same level as the element pointed to by argument pElement. For the argument pElement, pass the value returned by LDicomDS::FindFirstPrivateCreatorDataElement or the value returned by LDicomDS::FindNextPrivateCreatorDataElement.

If bTree is TRUE, the data set is searched as a tree. If bTree is FALSE, the data set is searched as a list. For more information on the use of this parameter, see LDicomDS::FindFirstElement.
