Comments

Quickly and easily customize the DICOM Information Object Definition (IOD Table) by editing the dicTableIOD.xml 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 (i.e. notepad) to add or remove DICOM IODs. Then call LDicomIOD::LoadXml() and pass the full path of the dicTableIodModule.xml file.

NOTE: Calling LoadXml() will first remove all IODs that are already present in the table.

For the default values for the IOD Table, refer to the Default IOD Table.
