/*
 * This example shows how one from C# context can extract a binary blob
 * and write out as a file.
 * This example is meant for pdf encapsulated file, but can be adapted for other type
 * of binary blob.
 *
 * DICOM file is:
 * ...
 * (0042,0010) ST (no value available)                     #   0, 0 DocumentTitle
 * (0042,0011) OB 25\50\44\46\2d\31\2e\32\20\0d\25\e2\e3\cf\d3\20\0d\31\30\20\30\20... # 40718, 1 EncapsulatedDocument
 * (0042,0012) LO [application/pdf]                        #  16, 1 MIMETypeOfEncapsulatedDocument
 * ...
 *
 * Usage:
 * $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/Projects/gdcm/debug-gcc/bin
 * $ mono bin/ExtractEncapsulatedFile.exe some_pdf_encapsulated.dcm
