Comments

This function is very useful for extracting audio (wave) data from a DICOM object of type "Basic Voice Audio" (1.2.840.10008.5.1.4.1.1.9.4.1), which is typically used for report dictation.

The resulting wave file has the following characteristics:

1.

Number of channels: will either be 1 or 2, based on the value of the number of channels for this multiplex group. You can call L_DicomWaveGrpGetNumberOfChannels to get the number of channels in a multiplex group.

2.

Bits per sample (sample size) will always be 8.

3.

Samples per second (sampling rate): This will be the same as the sampling frequency for the waveform group, call L_DicomWaveGrpGetSamplingFrequency to get this value.

4.

Format category: PCM, mu-Law or a-Law, based on the value of the waveform sample interpretation which can be retrieved by calling L_DicomWaveGrpGetSampleInterpretation.
