Getting image set metadata
Use the GetImageSetMetadata action to retrieve metadata for a given image set in HealthImaging. The following menus provide a procedure for the AWS Management Console
and code examples for the AWS CLI and AWS SDKs. For more information, see GetImageSetMetadata in the AWS HealthImaging API
Reference.
Note
By default, HealthImaging returns metadata attributes for the latest version of an image set.
To view metadata for an older version of an image set, provide the
versionId with your request.
Image set metadata is compressed with gzip and returned as a JSON object.
Therefore, you must decompress the JSON object prior to viewing the normalized metadata.
For more information, see Metadata normalization.
Use GetDICOMInstanceMetadata, HealthImaging's representation of a DICOMweb
service, to return DICOM instance metadata (.json file). For more
information, see Getting DICOM instance metadata from
HealthImaging.

Transfer Syntax Metadata
When importing DICOM data, HealthImaging keeps the original value for the transfer syntax
attribute in the image set metadata. The transfer syntax of the original DICOM data imported
is stored as TransferSyntaxUID. HealthImaging uses StoredTransferSyntaxUID
to indicate the format used to encode image frame data in the data store:
1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.202 for HTJ2K enabled data stores (default) and
1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.90 for JPEG 2000 Lossless enabled data stores.
