Parameters

element
An item in the Data Set.

index
The zero-based index of the first frame to load.

count
Value that represents the number of frames to load.

bitsPerPixel
Value that represents the resulting image pixel depth. Possible values are:

Value Meaning
0 Keep the original file's pixel depth (do not convert).
1 to 8 Use the specified bits per pixel in the resulting image.
12 Use 12 bits per pixel in the resulting image.
16 Use 16 bits per pixel in the resulting image.
24 Use 24 bits per pixel in the resulting image.
32 Use 32 bits per pixel in the resulting image.

order
This value is ignored.

flags
Flags that control the behavior of this method.

callback
DicomGetImageCallback which will be called for each image that is loaded. This parameter cannot be null.

Return Value

The images of a Pixel Data element.

Remarks

For more details, see GetImages

Example

This example will read a DICOM dataset and get all the images from the pixel data element.
