FindModuleByIndex Method

Summary

Returns a DicomModule object that contains information about the module, on Level 0, at the specified index.

Syntax

Objective-C

C++/CLI

Java

public DicomModule FindModuleByIndex( 
   int index 
)

- (nullable LTDicomModule *)findModuleByIndex:(NSUInteger)index NS_SWIFT_NAME(findModuleByIndex(_:));

public DicomModule findModuleByIndex(int index)

public: 
DicomModule^ FindModuleByIndex(  
   int index 
)

Parameters

index
The zero-based index of the module, on Level 0 of the Data Set, to get.

Return Value

A DicomModule object that contains information about the module at the specified index on Level 0 of the Data Set, or a null reference (Nothing in VB) if no module at the specified index was found. The DicomModule object returned by this method is not unique. It will be overwritten by subsequent calls to FindModule.

Remarks

The DicomModule object returned by this method is not unique. It will be overwritten by subsequent calls to FindModule.

This method only finds modules at a specific index on Level 0 of the Data Set.

To find information about a module within the Data Set use FindModule.

To find specific elements within the Data Set use the following:

Example

using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Dicom; 
 
 
public void DicomModuleSample() 
{ 
   //Make sure to initialize the DICOM engine, this needs to be done only once  
   //In the whole application 
   DicomEngine.Startup(); 
   using (DicomDataSet dicomDataset = new DicomDataSet()) 
   { 
      dicomDataset.Initialize(DicomClassType.DXImageStoragePresentation, DicomDataSetInitializeType.ExplicitVRLittleEndian); 
      dicomDataset.DeleteModule(DicomModuleType.Patient); 
      dicomDataset.InsertModule(DicomModuleType.Patient, false); 
      DicomModule module = dicomDataset.FindModule(DicomModuleType.Patient); 
      Debug.Assert(module != null); 
      bool found = false; 
      for (int i = 0; i < dicomDataset.ModuleCount; i++) 
      { 
         module = dicomDataset.FindModuleByIndex(i); 
         if (module.Type == DicomModuleType.Patient) 
         { 
            found = true; 
         } 
      } 
      Debug.Assert(found); 
   } 
   DicomEngine.Shutdown(); 
}
