Structs

• DataDictionaryEntryBuf
  A data type for a dictionary entry with full ownership.

Enums

• TagRange
  Specification of a range of tags pertaining to an attribute. Very often, the dictionary of attributes indicates a unique group part and element part (group,elem), but occasionally an attribute may cover a range of groups or elements instead. For example, Overlay Data (60xx,3000) has more than one possible tag, since it is part of a repeating group. Moreover, a unique variant is defined for group length tags and another one for private creator tags.

  Enum for all UID types recognized by the standard.
• VirtualVr
  A “virtual” value representation (VR) descriptor which extends the standard enumeration with context-dependent VRs.
