无论是在DICOM文件还是DICOM通信中,其信息都是由许多data element(数据单元)的集合所表示,每个data element表示一个属性,如病人姓名、图像类型等等。这些data element按照Tag值从小到大依次连接,类似于数据结构的链表或者数组(SQ类型有另外的编码方式,以后会讲到),请看下图,一个data element包含四个字段Tag,VR,ValueLength,Value Field.
DICOMDIR 是一个可变长度 迷你 database 文件。由 group (0002, xxxx) 和 group (0004, xxxx) 为主题。描述的是一个 4 层的树状结构 (tree structure)。
1. Patient
2. Study
3. Series
4. Image
将data element的数据结构编码为字节流时受以下几个因素影响:
1.传输语法: Implicit/Explicit VR, BIG/LITTLE Endian
2.VR
当采用implicit VR时,其编码如下,这个时候是没有VR字段的,它采用data dictionary默认的VR.
