Signature: source.getDICOMUnsignedShortsAsArray(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 unsigned shorts of the first node that matches the nodePath.

Example

// Example: Retrieve unsigned short values from a DICOM node as a JavaScript array.

// Retrieve values from the first matching node at nodePath.
var unsignedShorts = source.getDICOMUnsignedShortsAsArray("0010,0010"); // e.g. [123, 456, ...]

// Retrieve values from the 2nd occurrence (instance is 1-based: 1 = first instance).
var unsignedShortsArrayInstance = source.getDICOMUnsignedShortsAsArray(
    "0010,0010",    // DICOM tag
    2               // instance (1-based)
);
