This function returns information about the Current Data Element (DE).

Declaration:

 
Copy Code
AT_ERRCOUNT ACCUAPI MED_ElemList_curr_info_get(
        HIGMEDELEMLIST hIGMedElemList,
        LPAT_DCM_TAG lpTag, 
        LPAT_DCM_VR lpVR, 
        LPAT_DCM_VL lpVL, 
        LPWORD lpLevel, 
        LPDWORD lpItem_count
);

Arguments:

Name Type Description
hIGMedElemList HIGMEDELEMLIST HIGMEDELEMLIST handle to the Data Element List object.
lpTag LPAT_DCM_TAG A far pointer that returns a 32-bit value of type AT_DCM_TAG indicating the numerical value of the Tag of the Current Data Element; set this to NULL if you do not need this information. The numerical values of the DICOM Tags are defined in enumIGMedTag enumeration.
lpVR LPAT_DCM_VR A far pointer to variable of type AT_DCM_VR which returns the Value Representation (VR) of the Current Data Element; set this to NULL if you do not need this information.
lpVL LPAT_DCM_VL A far pointer to a variable of type DWORD that returns the length, in bytes, of the Current Data Element's Data Field; set this to NULL if you do not need this information.
lpLevel LPWORD A far pointer to a WORD which returns the level in the hierarchy of the new Current Data Element; set to NULL if you do not need this information.
lpItem_count LPDWORD A far pointer that returns the number of items stored in the Data Field; set this to NULL if you do not need this information.

Return Value:

Returns the number of ImageGear errors that occurred during the function call.

Supported Raster Image Formats:

This function does not process image pixels.

Remarks:

This function operates in the same way as the MED_ElemList_move_...() functions except that it does not change the Current DE - it only reports about it.
