L_DicomGetTimeRangeValue

Summary

Fills a VALUETIMERANGE structure with Time Range information stored in the Value Field of the specified element.

Syntax

L_LTDIC_API L_INT16 L_DicomGetTimeRangeValue(hDS, pElement, nIndex, pValue)

Parameters

HDICOMDS hDS

A DICOM handle.

pDICOMELEMENT pElement

Pointer to a DICOMELEMENT structure within the Data Set.

L_UINT32 nIndex

Index value that indicates which value to retrieve when more than one value is stored in the Value Field. The index is zero-based.

pVALUETIMERANGE pValue

Pointer to the VALUETIMERANGE structure to be filled. For more information, see VALUETIMERANGE structure.

Returns

Comments

If you have more than one value stored in the Value Field of the specified Data Element, you can retrieve one or more of those elements. For example, if the Value Field of the specified Data Element contains three Time Range values, and you are only interested in retrieving the last two Time Range values, set nIndex to 1 and nCount to 2. This tells the function to retrieve the Time Range values starting at position 1 (the index is zero based) and retrieve two values. Therefore you would retrieve the values in positions 1 and 2 in the Value Field.

This function can be called only if the Value Representation of the Data Element is VR_TM. For more information about Value Representations, refer to Default Value Representation Table.
