message.getDICOMSignedLongsAsArray

Use when: You want to read values from the modified message during mapping. If you need the original incoming message, use source.getDICOMSignedLongsAsArray.

Signature: message.getDICOMSignedLongsAsArray(nodePath, instance*)

Returns: Number[] result - the first node as a JS Array of JS Numbers that matches the nodePath and instance

Get the result as an array of signed longs of the first node that matches the nodePath.

Note

When the optional instance value is specified, the nodePath should not include an instance identifier.

Parameters

Type	Name	Description	Default
String	nodePath	the DICOM node path
Integer	instance*	(optional) the match instance to return. Use 1 for the first instance.	1

Example

// assumes `message` is a DICOM message model object

// Retrieve signed long values as a JavaScript array
var signedLongsArray = message.getDICOMSignedLongsAsArray(
    "0020,0010"     // Example DICOM tag
);

// Optionally retrieve a specific instance
var signedLongsArrayInstance = message.getDICOMSignedLongsAsArray(
    "0020,0010",    // node path
    2               // instance (1 = first instance)
);

// Result:
// - signedLongsArray is a JS Array of Numbers (signed longs)
// - signedLongsArrayInstance contains values for the specified instance
