## Detailed Description

This class encapsulates data structures and operations for modifying DICOM files.

Therefore it allows the process of load->modify->save to provide this service.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ checkPixelDataInsertion()

OFCondition MdfDatasetManager::checkPixelDataInsertion | ( | DcmElement * | elem | ) |
| protected

Make user user is not trying to replace encapsulated Pixel Data element value.

This is currently not implemented since there is no direct / obvious way to insert raw data into the pixel sequence structure managed by the DcmPixelData class.

Parameters

  elem | The potential Pixel Data element to be checked

Returns
  EC_Normal if modification is possible, error code otherwise

## ◆ deletePrivateData()

OFCondition MdfDatasetManager::deletePrivateData | ( |  | ) |

Deletes all private data from file,\ i.e.

all tags having odd group numbers.

Returns
  EC_Normal, if deletion was successful; error code otherwise

## ◆ deleteRelatedMetaheaderTag()

void MdfDatasetManager::deleteRelatedMetaheaderTag | ( | const DcmTagKey & | key | ) |
| protected

If key is the tag for SOPInstanceUID or SOPClassUID, then this function removes the related MediaStorage UIDs from the metaheader.

The metaheader is then updated "automagically" when the file is saved back to disk.

Parameters

  key | tag to examine

## ◆ deleteTag()

OFCondition MdfDatasetManager::deleteTag | ( | OFString | tag_path,
|  | const OFBool | all_tags,
|  | const OFBool | ignore_missing_tags )

Deletes tag in dataset.

Parameters

  tag_path | holds complete path to tag
  all_tags | if true, tag is deleted at all levels of dataset, else only 1st level is accessed
  ignore_missing_tags | if true, tags that could not be found while modifying are handled as non-errors

Returns
  returns EC_Normal if everything is OK, else an error

## ◆ findOrCreateValidPath()

OFCondition MdfDatasetManager::findOrCreateValidPath | ( | DcmPathProcessor & | proc,
|  | OFString | tag_path,
|  | const OFString & | value_or_filename,
|  | const OFBool | only_modify,
|  | const OFBool | ignore_missing_tags,
|  | const OFBool | no_reservation_checks )
| protected

Finds or inserts a path and performs some basic checks on the path:

- If the path is a private tag, it is checked whether the private creator tag is present in the dataset. (disabled if no_reservation_checks is true).
- If the path contains tags with group numbers 0,1,2,3,5,7 or FF, an error is returned.
- If a value is defined (via file or non-empty string), it is ensured that the path does points to a leaf object (i.e. not a sequence or item).
- It is not possible to "only modify" a path that points to a non-leaf object If the path has been created or found, the path processor contains at least one valid path.

Parameters

  proc | path processor to be used
  tag_path | path to item/element
  value_or_filename | denotes new value of tag or filename to read value from. Only used to determine whether a value should be applied (not in this method) to the target element or not.
  only_modify | if true, only existing tags are processed. If false, any not existing tag is inserted
  ignore_missing_tags | if true, tags that could not be found while modifying (only_modify must be true) are handled as non-errors
  no_reservation_checks | if true, any missing private reservation tags are ignored when inserting private tags. Only makes sense w/o only_modify

Returns
  returns EC_Normal if everything is OK, else an error

## ◆ generateAndInsertUID()

OFCondition MdfDatasetManager::generateAndInsertUID | ( | const DcmTagKey & | uidKey | ) |

Inserts new Study, Series or SOP Instance UID.

If SOP Instance UID is generated, the related tag in the metaheader is deleted, too so that the new UID is also applied there when saving to disk later.

Parameters

  uidKey | [in] The Instance UID to insert (study, series or sop instance UID key permitted).

Returns
  EC_Normal, if insertion was successful, error otherwise

## ◆ getDataset()

DcmDataset * MdfDatasetManager::getDataset | ( |  | ) |

Returns the dataset that this MdfDatasetManager handles.

You should use the returned object with care to avoid side effects with other class methods that modify this object, too.

Returns
  returns the dataset, this MdfDatasetManager manages and NULL, if no dataset is loaded

## ◆ getFileFormat()

DcmFileFormat * MdfDatasetManager::getFileFormat | ( |  | ) |

Returns the DcmFileFormat that this MdfDatasetManager handles.

You should use the returned object with care to avoid side-effects with other class methods that modify this object, too.

Returns
  returns the DcmFileFormat, this MdfDatasetManager manages and NULL, if no file is loaded

## ◆ getFilename()

OFString MdfDatasetManager::getFilename | ( |  | ) | const

Returns filename of the file that is currently loaded.

Returns
  returns filename and "" if no file is loaded.
