[MINC-users] Map of dicom tags to minc header

[Gabriel A. Devenyi]

Hi Matthew,

No need to worry about “mapping”. THe exact dicom header values are encoded
into the header in addition to conversion in various places:

Example

    int dicom_0x0051 ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x1008 = "IMAGE NUM 4 " ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x0010 = "SIEMENS MR HEADER " ;
        dicom_0x0051:vartype = "group________" ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x100f = "C:HEA;HEP " ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x1013 = "+LPH" ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x0000 = 14b, 1b, 0b, 0b ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x1017 = "SL 1.0" ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x100e = "Sag>Tra(-2.1)>Cor(-0.5) " ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x1012 = "TP 0" ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x1011 = "p2" ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x100a = "TA 05:10" ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x1009 = "1.0 " ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x100d = "SP L87.1" ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x1015 = "D/R " ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x1016 = "p2 M/ND/NORM" ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x100c = "FoV 240*256 " ;
        dicom_0x0051:varid = "MNI DICOM variable" ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x100b = "240*256 " ;
        dicom_0x0051:el_0x1019 = "A1/IR " ;
