For a particular (Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy) dicom file, IDLFFDICOM failed in dumping the dicom tags; however, it worked well on all other DICOM files in the same series. In order to rule out the errors made by the file producer, I was able to extract the DICOM file's tag info using another vendor application. I am sure I had successfully extracted MRS data from tag = [5600, 0020] using IDLFFDICOM a few years ago, but just do not remember which IDL release was used.

This problem was reproduced using IDLffDICOM in IDL 8.4.1 (currently released version). IDL 7.1 (not 7.1.1) seems to be the last prior version of IDL that could successfully read the same files using IDLffDICOM and then access the data from tag (5600,0020). Also IDL 8.4.1 IDLffDicomEx (DICOM Toolkit -- which requires a separately purchased module licensed) could successfully read the file. The bug ID for this issue is IDL-69360. Hopefully, the problem can be fixed in a future version of IDL.
