Hello,
Is it possible to look up a DICOM attribute using its DICOM keyword in ITK? Also, is it possible to determine the value representation of an attribute using its tag or keyword?
For example, I’d like to lookup the patient’s name using the DICOM keyword “PatientName” instead of the tag “0010|0010”, and determine its DICOM value representation (which is “PN”). I see that the gdcm::Dict and gdcm::DictEntry classes provide these capabilities, but I couldn’t determine if these capabilities are surfaced in ITK. All I could find was the itk::MetaDataDictionary class, which seems to support looking up attributes by tag only, if I’m not mistaken.
