Purpose

Decoding of vendor specific DICOM tags. Until now, only gradients of Siemens as well as Philips (only multiframe) diffusion-weighted image data are decoded to the private tag (0021,1013).

Usage

Connect input data and read tag (0021,1013), e.g., using the DicomTagViewer

Details

Use this module always before the DTIInfo module.

Tips

If using the SubImage to crop the t-dimension, the corresponding gradient information is not cropped. Furthermore, if using the DTIInfo, the number of excitations will also show the original number before cropping.

Input Fields

input0

name: input0, type: Image

The input image.

Output Fields

output0

name: output0, type: Image

The output image where private DICOM tags are encoded.

Parameter Fields

Visible Fields

Offset Last Time Point

name: offsetLastTimePoint, type: Integer, default: 0

Number defines how many gradients shall be removed from the end of the gradient table. This option might be useful for some Philips sequences where at the end additional B0 images or unweighted images are stored.
