Method Detail

setExtraMetadata

void setExtraMetadata(java.lang.String metadataSource)

Provide additional metadata that should be written as part of this dataset. Primarily intended for DicomWriter. Calling this method is optional. Multiple calls are allowed, e.g. if tags come from multiple external sources. If multiple calls to this method are made then the order matters, with earlier calls implying higher priority when resolving duplicate or conflicting tags. All calls to this method must occur before setId is called.
