You do not need to use the "Query Dicom Header" plugin. Instead, call the DicomTools.getTag() method. Here is a JavaScript example:
imp = IJ.openImage("
http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/images/ct.dcm.zip");
studyDescription = DicomTools.getTag(imp, "0008,1030");
imagePosition = DicomTools.getTag(imp, "0020,0032");
pixelSpacing = DicomTools.getTag(imp, "0028,0030");
print("Study Description: "+ studyDescription);
print("Image Position: "+imagePosition);
print("Pixel Spacing: "+ pixelSpacing);
In a macro, use the getInfo() function:
open("
http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/images/ct.dcm.zip");
studyDescription = getInfo("0008,1030");
imagePosition = getInfo("0020,0032");
pixelSpacing = getInfo("0028,0030");
print("Study Description: "+ studyDescription);
print("Image Position: "+imagePosition);
print("Pixel Spacing: "+ pixelSpacing);
