Hi Christian,

In response to your request, we just added an
example on how to read individual DICOM tags.

You will find this new example under


     Insight/Code/IO/
        DicomSeriesReadPrintTags.cxx



Since this has just been committed to the CVS
repository, you will have to update your CVS
checkout in order to get the new example.

This example uses the MetaDataDictionary that
is populated with all the DICOM tags.

Note that the example requires to use gdcm
in conjunction with ITK.  You can download
gdcm for free from:

http://www.creatis.insa-lyon.fr/Public/Gdcm/


Please let us know if you have further questions,



    Thanks


       Luis
