    In This Topic
    Determines the Abstract Syntax used for normalised operations
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    
    Public Property MetaSOPClass As String
    'Usage
     
    
    Dim instance As DicomAssociation
    Dim value As String
     
    instance.MetaSOPClass = value
     
    value = instance.MetaSOPClass
    public string MetaSOPClass {get; set;}
    public:
    property String^ MetaSOPClass {
       String^ get();
       void set (    String^ value);
    }
    Remarks

    Normalised operations, unlike composite operations, are not directly tied to specific abstract syntaxes, but still need to be sent within a negotiated presentation context, which generally relates to a number of related operations, and is known as a Meta SOP Class. This property defines this abstract context, and is therefore used for the selection of an appropriate presentation context, according to those negotiated and available.

    If this property is a null string, then the SOP class specified in the normalised operation itself is used, which may be appropriate for some classes, which do not use meta SOP classes for negotiation.
