Comments

Each Digital Signature should be uniquely identified by a UID specified by the Digital Signature UID (0400,0100) under the corresponding Digital Signatures Sequence Item. Use this function to search the whole Data Set for a Digital Signature by its Digital Signature UID.

Once a pointer to the Digital Signatures Sequence Item is obtained, the following functions can be used to verify, delete, or get information about the Digital Signature:

You can also use the L_DicomGetSignaturesCount and L_DicomGetSignature functions to enumerate the Digital Signatures in the main Data Set or in an Item of a Sequence of Items.
