GetPresentationStateImageReference Method

Summary

Retrieves the item element, which represents a referenced image (SOP Instance) under the "Referenced Image Sequence" in the "Presentation State Module".

Syntax

C++/CLI

Java

public DicomElement GetPresentationStateImageReference( 
   string sopInstanceUID 
)

public DicomElement getPresentationStateImageReference(String sopInstanceUID)

public: 
DicomElement^ GetPresentationStateImageReference(  
   String^ sopInstanceUID 
)

Parameters

sopInstanceUID
Character string that contains the SOP Instance UID of the image whose item element will be retrieved.

Return Value

Item element which represents a referenced image (SOP Instance) under the "Referenced Image Sequence" in the "Presentation State Module".

Remarks

This method will return the item element, which represents a referenced image (SOP Instance) under the "Referenced Image Sequence" in the "Presentation State Module". A null reference (Nothing in VB) will be returned if the item could not be found.
