source ·
Expand description

This modules contains an assortment of types required for interpreting DICOM data elements. It comprises a variety of basic data types, such as the DICOM attribute tag, the element header, and element composite types.

Structs

  • DataElement
    A data type that represents and owns a DICOM data element.
  • DataElementHeader
    A data structure for a data element header, containing a tag, value representation and specified length.
  • DataElementRef
    A data type that represents a DICOM data element with a borrowed value.
  • Length
    A type for representing data set content length, in bytes. An internal value of 0xFFFF_FFFF represents an undefined (unspecified) length, which would have to be determined with a traversal based on the content’s encoding.
  • PrimitiveDataElement
    A data type that represents and owns a DICOM data element containing a primitive value.
  • PrimitiveDataElementRef
    A data type that represents a DICOM data element with a borrowed primitive value.
  • Tag
    The data type for DICOM data element tags.

Enums

  • EmptyObject
    Stub type representing a non-existing DICOM object.
  • ParseTagError
    Could not parse DICOM tag
  • SequenceItemHeader
    Data type for describing a sequence item data element. If the element represents an item, it will also contain the specified length.
  • SequenceItemHeaderError
    Error type for issues constructing a sequence item header.
  • VR
    An enum type for a DICOM value representation.

Traits

  • HasLength
    Trait for any DICOM entity (element or item) which may have a length.
  • Header
    A trait for a data type containing a DICOM header.
