@Mateo_Prados: Hello! I wanted to know if there’s a way or function that handles retrieving the name/description associated with a TAG based on the TAG itself.
For example, given the tag (0010,0010), is it possible to get “Patient’s Name”??
@Jay_Liu: I think this might be handled by https://github.com/cornerstonejs/dicomParser
You can inspect the source in the example page https://cornerstonejs.github.io/dicomParser/examples/dumpWithDataDictionary/index.html to learn how it works

@Bill_Wallace: dcmjs has a data dictionary. dicomParser I think just has the raw tag numbers in order to avoid needing any tag values.
