DICOM Tags

pumpia.file_handling.dicom_tags.get_tag(dicom_image: Dataset | DataElement, tag: Tag, frame: int | None = None) → DataElement

Returns the dicom element from the pydicom Dataset defined by tag. If the Dataset is a stack then the frame can be provided for frame specific elements.

Parameters:

• dicom_image (Dataset) – pydicom Dataset to be searched

• tag (Tag) – tag of element to be returned

• frame (int, optional) – frame number (starting at 1) if relevant, by default None

Returns:

pydicom Dataelement of the provided tag. Use DataElement.value attribute to get the value of the element.

Return type:

DataElement

Raises:

KeyError – raised if an element is not found.

class pumpia.file_handling.dicom_tags.Tag(name: str, keyword: str, group: int, element: int, links: list[~pumpia.file_handling.dicom_tags.bases.TagLink] = <factory>, alternative_tags: list[tuple[int, int]] = <factory>)

dataclass representing a dicom tag

Parameters:

• name (str) – the name of the tag as defined in the dicom standards.

• keyword (str) – the keyword of the tag as defined in the dicom standards.

• group (int) – the group of the dicom tag

• element (int) – the element of the dicom tag

• links (list[TagLink]) – a list of TagLinks that hold any sequences the tag may be part of.

• alternative_tags (list[tuple[int, int]]) – a list of alternative tuples that could represent this tag
