when i use pydicom, errror printed..IndexError: list index out of range
Using pydicom to try to read a test file like so:
from pydicom.data import get_testdata_files
pass_dicom = "CT-MONO2-16-ankle.dcm"
filename = get_testdata_files(pass_dicom)[0]
I get an error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "t.py", line 4, in <module>
filename = get_testdata_files(pass_dicom)[0]
IndexError: list index out of range
Please help.
I edited your question to include the code, as @Shai suggested. Note that it was not a great question in other ways - there was no indication of what you'd tried, and there reproductoin code included some extraneous elements. Please consider reading and applying stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask when asking your next question. It will help the answerers help you.

get_testdata_files
looks for files in libsite-packagespydicomdatatest_files
under your python installation.
get_testdata_files
libsite-packagespydicomdatatest_files
"CT-MONO2-16-ankle.dcm" does not appear to be one of the supplied sample files (at least I don't have it with pydicom 1.1.0). So get_testdata_files is returning an empty list () and when you try to get the 0th item, it raises an exception because there is no 0th item.
In the future, when debugging these kinds of errors, consider decomposing your code. Once you find a problem with get_testdata_files(pass_dicom)[0]
, try get_testdata_files(pass_dicom)
. See what its result is, and why.
get_testdata_files(pass_dicom)[0]
get_testdata_files(pass_dicom)
And remember, the pydicom source is available online and installed on your own computer, so you can always see (for example) what get_testdata_files
is trying to do.
get_testdata_files
