Back in 0.9.4 the file meta information was separated into its own dataset. You should be able to work with this data element using the file_meta object, in this case ds.file_meta.MediaStorageSOPInstanceUID.

Thanks so much. That did the trick. I wonder though if I'm using an outdated version - 0.9.5? You eluded to a newer technique.
In any case, thanks for your help. It's all working wonderfully now.
Regards.

Reproduction:
import dicom ds = dicom.read_file('00137DCM') ds.data_element('MediaStorageSOPInstanceUID')
ERROR: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pydicom-0.9.5-py2.6.egg/dicom/dataset.py", line 100, in data_element
return self[tag]
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pydicom-0.9.5-py2.6.egg/dicom/dataset.py", line 244, in getitem
data_elem = dict.getitem(self, tag)
KeyError: (0002, 0003)
The file clearly contains this tag, so I'm not sure what to think. Also, if I set the element value:
import dicom ds = dicom.read_file('00137DCM') ds.MediaStorageSOPInstanceUID = '1234' ds.data_element('MediaStorageSOPInstanceUID')
Everything looks good:
except that the changes do not save back to a file when calling ds.save_as('filename.dcm')
Changes to ds.PatientID = 'SOMEID'
save just fine.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
