fileMetaData.ImplementationVersionName

[xela-trawets]

FileMetaData.ImplementationVersionName is a UID in the repo My reading of the standard has the ImplementationVersionName as Short String

http://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/chtml/part06/chapter_7.html says (0002,0013) | Implementation Version Name | Implementation​Version​Name | SH | 1

perhaps I am using this the wrong way ?

ps. I am writing digital image files for NDT (diconde).

For those who find their way here: dcm.Remove(TagHelper.ImplementationVersionName); var ImplementationVersionNameTag = new ShortString(); ImplementationVersionNameTag.Tag = new Tag(TagHelper.ImplementationVersionName.CompleteID); ImplementationVersionNameTag.DData = "ALEX!"; dcm.Add(ImplementationVersionNameTag);

I ought to add that I spent the last few days trying various Dicom projects (Fellow Oak dicom, Offis, other code (Dave Clunie's site)), specifically to learn how to handle Dicom FileIO and that Evil-Dicom is easily my favourite. It has just the right blend of detail and simplicity for me, (and can extract tags from files that make other systems barf).

Closing this, looks fine now

Tried to make a PR with this, but the diff ended up being huge... line 108 in FileMetaData.cs
