problem with UN VR type

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, 
Im a new user of python and I need to read the information of the dicom tags. I 
was using pydicom but I have a problem. If the tag is 'UN' unknown, pydicom it 
is no capable to read it. I'm a usually Matlab user and, "dicominfo" is capable 
o do it, like you can see in his code : 

"case 'UN'

    % It's possible that the attribute contains a private sequence
    % with implicit VR; in which case the Data field contains the
    % parsed sequence.
    if (isstruct(rawAttr.Data))
        processedAttr = parseSequence(rawAttr.Data);
    else
        processedAttr = rawAttr.Data';
    end"
My question is if you have any idea about I can read this 'UN' tag with pydicom.

Thanks,
Manuela

Hi, we are over on github now.  Please create an issue over there 
(https://github.com/darcymason/pydicom/issues/new) and we can discuss further.

But quick first answer ... pydicom should handle UN, just returning it as 
bytes.  Can you provide more detail on the error message you are getting?
