    FunctionalGroupDataSet(Keyword,Int32) Method
    In This Topic
    Locate the required functional group within a DicomDataSet
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    
    Public Overloads Function FunctionalGroupDataSet( _
       ByVal Macro As Keyword, _
       ByVal Frame As Integer _
    ) As DicomDataSet
    'Usage
     
    
    Dim instance As DicomDataSet
    Dim Macro As Keyword
    Dim Frame As Integer
    Dim value As DicomDataSet
     
    value = instance.FunctionalGroupDataSet(Macro, Frame)
    public DicomDataSet FunctionalGroupDataSet( 
       Keyword Macro,
       int Frame
    )
    public:
    DicomDataSet^ FunctionalGroupDataSet( 
       Keyword Macro,
       int Frame
    ) 

    Parameters

    Macro
    The Keyword descriptor of the requested dataset
    Frame
    The frame number to which the dataset should apply

    Return Value

    The requested dataset
    Remarks
    The enhanced DICOM multi-frame objects (e.g. enhanced CT and MRI) allow many attributes to be held in functional group macros, which may be either:
    • The same for all frames - in the "Shared Functional Groups Sequence" (5200,9229)
    • Different for different frames - in the "Per-frame Functional Groups Sequence" (5200,9230)
    This method allows the designated dataset to be located, irrespective of which sequence it is in. Note that the Keyword used to identify the functional group is independent of the Keyword of individual attributes within that DataSet.
    Requirements

    Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
