I use OFFIS DICOM dcmdump tool to extract information from a DICOM image: http://support.dcmtk.org/docs/dcmdump.html
I use dcmdump.exe -M -L +Qn
to dump the DICOM information.
Output looks like
# Dicom-Meta-Information-Header
# Used TransferSyntax: Little Endian Explicit
(0002,0000) UL 164 # 4, 1 FileMetaInformationGroupLength
(0002,0001) OB 00\01 # 2, 1 FileMetaInformationVersion
(0002,0002) UI =DigitalXRayImageStorageForPresentation # 28, 1 MediaStorageSOPClassUID
(0002,0003) UI [1.2.826.0.1.3680043.2.876.8598.1.4.0.20160428091911.2.2] # 56, 1 MediaStorageSOPInstanceUID
(0002,0010) UI =JPEGLSLossless # 22, 1 TransferSyntaxUID
(0002,0012) UI [1.2.276.0.64] # 12, 1 ImplementationClassUID
Why did dcmdump translate (0002,0010) to the value JPEGLSLossless
instead of 1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.80
?
Is there any switch to do so?

dcmdump does so because it translates well known UIDs to human readable meanings by default.
The parameter you are searching for to change this behavior is -Un (--no-uid-names)
