How to get raw ecg data from DICOM file?

问题

I would like to obtain raw ecg data (time - voltage) from a dcm file I have. I would like to do that in MATLAB, hovever if there is any other way, please let me know. Thank you

The following code will get the elements. Not sure if the values are Big Endian or Little Endian so the bytes may need to be swapped.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;

namespace ConsoleApplication51
{

    class Program
    {
        const string FILENAME = @"c:\temp\test.dcm";

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
           new DataElement(FILENAME);
        }
    }
    public class DataElement
    {
        public static List<DataElement> elements = null;

        public UInt16 groupNumber { get; set; }
        public UInt16 elementNumber { get; set; }
        public string vr { get; set; }
        public byte[] reserved { get; set; }
        public uint length { get; set; }
        public byte[] values { get; set; }

        public DataElement() { }
        public DataElement(string filename)
        {
            elements = new List<DataElement>();

            Stream stream = File.OpenRead(filename);
            BinaryReader bReader = new BinaryReader(stream);

            long length = stream.Length;
            while (stream.Position < length)
            {
                DataElement element = new DataElement();
                elements.Add(element);

                element.groupNumber = bReader.ReadUInt16();
                element.elementNumber = bReader.ReadUInt16();
                element.vr = bReader.ReadChars(2).ToString();
                element.reserved = bReader.ReadBytes(2);
                element.length = bReader.ReadUInt32();
                element.values = bReader.ReadBytes((int)element.length);
            }
        }

    }


}
