Function: resolveDecoderLabel()

resolveDecoderLabel(terms): string

Resolve the TextDecoder label to use for a value, given the dataset's Specific Character Set terms. Prefers a multibyte/extended decoder when the term list mixes single-byte and code-extension sets; falls back to the default repertoire (Latin-1, lenient) when no term resolves.

Parameters

terms

readonly string[] | undefined

Returns

string

Example

import { resolveDecoderLabel } from "@cosyte/dicom";
resolveDecoderLabel(["ISO 2022 IR 6", "ISO 2022 IR 87"]); // "iso-2022-jp"
