'Declaration
 
Public ReadOnly Property WaveformGroupCount As Integer
'Usage
 
Dim instance As DicomDataSet
Dim value As Integer
 
value = instance.WaveformGroupCount
public int WaveformGroupCount {get;}
ObjectiveC Syntax
Java Syntax
 get_WaveformGroupCount(); 
public:
property int WaveformGroupCount {
   int get();
}

Property Value

Value that represents the number of waveform multiplex groups that are included in the dataset.
Remarks
In DICOM, a waveform consists of one or more multiplex groups, each encoded into an item in the "Waveform Sequence" (5400,0100). Use this method to retrieve the number of items under that sequence.

Once you know the total number of multiplex groups, call the GetWaveformGroup method to extract a specific group or the DeleteWaveformGroup method to delete it.
