dicom-data-dictionary

DICOM Data Dictionary JavaScript Library

About

The purpose of this library is to provide DICOM data dictionary functionality. Currently it just provides a set of standard tags from an unknown version of the DICOM standard. See backlog for some ideas of things to add in the future - pull requests are welcome!

Usage

This library is written using JavaScript ES6 and distributed as both ES6 code and ES5 code via NPM. The ES5 code is generated using 6to5 so you must use the polyfills as described here. Use in a pure ES6 environment does not require any polyfills (see example/example-es6.js). You should be able to use this library from a web browser using browserify or jspm.

Install from NPM

npm install dicom-data-dictionary

Example of using from ES5 environment using Node.JS

npm run example

Example of using from ES6 environment using 6to5-node

npm run example-es6

Note - this module can take several seconds to load because it contains the entire data dictionary. It is recommended to load this module asynchronously voa Syste.import() to avoid any startup related time penalties (especially if the module isn't needed right away).
