Description
It would be nice if one could copy the value of one DICOM element to another element (with a different tag), e.g. RequestedProcedureID from the worklist to StudyID in the image. Currently, only a 1:1 copy of the entire DICOM data element is possible.
See this forum posting: http://forum.dcmtk.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4638
One possible approach would be to introduce a new DcmElement::copyValueFrom() method. Another one would be to have something like DcmItem::insertElementWithTag(), which inserts a given data element into the item/dataset with a given attribute tag.
