Comments

Quickly and easily customize the DICOM Information Object Definition table (IOD Table) by editing the dicTableIodModule file that is found in the LEADTOOLS Sample Images folder. The dicTableIodModule.xml file is a human-readable XML file that lists all of the DICOM IODs and DICOM Modules currently defined in the DICOM Specification. You can edit this with any text editor (for example Notepad) to add or remove DICOM IODs. Then call L_DicomLoadXmlIOD() and pass the full path of the dicTableIodModule.xml file. Note that calling L_DicomLoadXmlIOD() will first remove all IODs that are already present in the table.

To see the default values for the IOD Table, refer to the Default IOD Table.
