DicomObjects Namespace / DicomDataSet Class / Write Method / Write(String,String,Object,DicomDataSet) Method

The name of the file to write.

This is passed unmodified to the operating system, and it is therefore the container�s responsibility to ensure either that the current directory is set correctly, or that a fully qualified filename is provided.

Specifies the full UID of the transfer syntax with which the file is to be saved when Part 10 format is used. If omitted, the little-endian explicit VR transfer syntax is used.

The quality factor to be used.

The customized MetaHeader (only Group 2 Elements)

    Parameters

    FileName

    The name of the file to write.

    This is passed unmodified to the operating system, and it is therefore the container�s responsibility to ensure either that the current directory is set correctly, or that a fully qualified filename is provided.

    TransferSyntax

    Specifies the full UID of the transfer syntax with which the file is to be saved when Part 10 format is used. If omitted, the little-endian explicit VR transfer syntax is used.

    Quality

    The quality factor to be used.

    MetaHeader

    The customized MetaHeader (only Group 2 Elements)

    Remarks

    The file may subsequently be read by the Read method or by other DICOM software.

    Quality is specific to the compression method being used, and is ignored for non-compressed or lossless JPEG transfer syntaxes. For Lossy JPEG, it is an integer in the range 1-100, the higher the number, the better the quality (and the larger the file), and for JPEG 2000 lossy, it is a compression ratio. Other compression methods may use this for other purposes in the future.

    The provided MetaHeader should only contain group 2 elements.

    Requirements

    Target Platforms: .NET CLR 4.8 or higher
