Example
using Leadtools;
using Leadtools.Dicom;
public void RecursiveReadIOD(DicomIod parentIOD)
{
DicomIod iod;
if (parentIOD == null)
{
iod = DicomIodTable.Instance.GetFirst(null, true);
}
else
{
iod = DicomIodTable.Instance.GetChild(parentIOD);
}
while (iod != null)
{
// Over here we can show the information about this IOD such as
// DicomIod.Type, DicomIod.Type, DicomIod.Usage and DicomIod.Description
if (DicomIodTable.Instance.GetChild(iod) != null)
{

}
iod = DicomIodTable.Instance.GetNext(iod, true);
}
}

//Make sure to initialize the DICOM engine, this needs to be done only once.
DicomEngine.Startup();
//We don't need to call this since the DicomEngine.Startup already does that for us
//These calls are for demonstration purposes only
DicomIodTable.Instance.Reset();

// We can find the number of modules in any class

// We can in here call any of the Find methods including FindModule and FindModuleByIndex,
// in this sample we are searching for a DICOM class, this is why we are using FindClass

// We can get the name of the IOD
string name = iod.ToString();
DicomIodTable.Instance.Delete(iod);
