DicomIod Class

Summary

The DicomIod class contains information about Information Object Definitions

Syntax

Objective-C

C++/CLI

Java

public class DicomIod

@interface LTDicomIod : NSObject

public class DicomIod

public ref class DicomIod

Remarks

Internally LEADTOOLS maintains a tree class, referred to as the IOD Structure, of available Information Object Definitions (IODs). These IODs can include default IODs available in DICOM, as well as user defined IODs. You can access any of this information, add to the IOD Structure, or delete items from the IOD Structure using the DicomIod class.

Example

using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Dicom; 
 
 
public void RecursiveReadIOD(DicomIod parentIOD) 
{ 
   DicomIod iod; 
   if (parentIOD == null) 
   { 
      iod = DicomIodTable.Instance.GetFirst(null, true); 
   } 
   else 
   { 
      iod = DicomIodTable.Instance.GetChild(parentIOD); 
   } 
 
   while (iod != null) 
   { 
      // Over here we can show the information about this IOD such as  
      // DicomIod.Name, DicomIod.Type, DicomIod.Usage and DicomIod.Description 
      if (DicomIodTable.Instance.GetChild(iod) != null) 
      { 
         RecursiveReadIOD(iod); 
      } 
      iod = DicomIodTable.Instance.GetNext(iod, true); 
   } 
} 
void TestIODTable() 
{ 
   //Make sure to initialize the DICOM engine, this needs to be done only once. 
   DicomEngine.Startup(); 
 
   //We don't need to call this since the DicomEngine.Startup already does that for us 
   //These calls are for demonstration purposes only 
   DicomIodTable.Instance.Reset(); 
   DicomIodTable.Instance.Default(); 
 
   // We can find the number of modules in any class 
   int moduleCount = DicomIodTable.Instance.GetModuleCount(DicomClassType.SCImageStorage); 
 
   // We can in here call any of the Find methods including FindModule and FindModuleByIndex, 
   // in this sample we are searching for a DICOM class, this is why we are using FindClass 
   DicomIod iod = DicomIodTable.Instance.FindClass(DicomClassType.SCImageStorage); 
 
   // We can get the name of the IOD 
   string name = iod.ToString(); 
 
   DicomIodTable.Instance.Delete(iod); 
 
   DicomIod iod1 = DicomIodTable.Instance.Insert(null, false, DicomClassType.SCImageStorage, "Secondary Capture Image Storage", DicomIodType.Class, DicomIodUsageType.MandatoryModule, "Description of the class goes in here"); 
   Debug.Assert(DicomIodTable.Instance.Exists(iod1) == true); 
   DicomIodTable.Instance.SetName(iod1, "Secondary Capture Image Storage 1"); 
 
   //Go through all the IODs in the IOD table 
   RecursiveReadIOD(null); 
 
   DicomEngine.Shutdown();
