"""Create a generator to efficiently return the raw data elements.
.. note::
This function is used internally - usually there is no need to call it
from user code. To read data from a DICOM file, :func:`dcmread`
shall be used instead.
Parameters
----------
fp : file-like
The file-like to read from.
is_implicit_VR : bool
``True`` if the data is encoded as implicit VR, ``False`` otherwise.
is_little_endian : bool
``True`` if the data is encoded as little endian, ``False`` otherwise.
stop_when : None, callable, optional
If ``None`` (default), then the whole file is read. A callable which
takes tag, VR, length, and returns ``True`` or ``False``. If it
returns ``True``, ``read_data_element`` will just return.
defer_size : int, str or float, optional
See :func:`dcmread` for parameter info.
encoding : str | MutableSequence[str]
Encoding scheme
specific_tags : list or None
See :func:`dcmread` for parameter info.
Yields
-------
RawDataElement or DataElement
Yields DataElement for undefined length UN or SQ, RawDataElement
otherwise.

# Summary of DICOM standard PS3.5-2008 chapter 7:
# If Implicit VR, data element is:
# tag, 4-byte length, value.
# The 4-byte length can be FFFFFFFF (undefined length)*
#
# If Explicit VR:
# if OB, OW, OF, SQ, UN, or UT:
# tag, VR, 2-bytes reserved (both zero), 4-byte length, value
# For all but UT, the length can be FFFFFFFF (undefined length)*
# else: (any other VR)
# tag, VR, (2 byte length), value
# * for undefined length, a Sequence Delimitation Item marks the end
# of the Value Field.
# Note, except for the special_VRs, both impl and expl VR use 8 bytes;
# the special VRs follow the 8 bytes with a 4-byte length
# With a generator, state is stored, so we can break down
# into the individual cases, and not have to check them again for each

"""Read and parse a DICOM dataset stored in the DICOM File Format.
Read a DICOM dataset stored in accordance with the :dcm:`DICOM File
Format <part10/chapter_7.html>`. If the dataset is not stored in
accordance with the File Format (i.e. the preamble and prefix are missing,
there are missing required Type 1 *File Meta Information Group* elements
or the entire *File Meta Information* is missing) then you will have to
set `force` to ``True``.
Examples
--------
Read and return a dataset stored in accordance with the DICOM File Format:
>>> ds = pydicom.dcmread("CT_small.dcm")
>>> ds.PatientName
Read and return a dataset not in accordance with the DICOM File Format:
>>> ds = pydicom.dcmread("rtplan.dcm", force=True)
>>> ds.PatientName
Use within a context manager:
>>> with pydicom.dcmread("rtplan.dcm") as ds:
... ds.PatientName
Parameters
----------
fp : str, PathLike, file-like or readable buffer
A file-like object, a string containing the file name or the
path to the file or a buffer-like object. The buffer-like object must
have ``seek()``, ``read()`` and ``tell()`` methods and the caller is
responsible for closing it (if required).
defer_size : int, str or float, optional
If not used then all elements are read into memory. If specified,
then if a data element's stored value is larger than `defer_size`, the
value is not read into memory until it is accessed in code. Should be
the number of bytes to be read as :class:`int` or as a :class:`str`
with units, e.g. ``'512 KB'``, ``'2 MB'``.
stop_before_pixels : bool, optional
If ``False`` (default), the full file will be read and parsed. Set
``True`` to stop before reading (7FE0,0010) *Pixel Data* (and all
subsequent elements).
force : bool, optional
If ``False`` (default), raises an
:class:`~pydicom.errors.InvalidDicomError` if the file is
missing the *File Meta Information* header. Set to ``True`` to force
reading even if no *File Meta Information* header is found.
specific_tags : list of (int or str or 2-tuple of int), optional
If used the only the supplied tags will be returned. The supplied
elements can be tags or keywords. Note that the element (0008,0005)
*Specific Character Set* is always returned if present - this ensures
correct decoding of returned text values.
Returns
-------
FileDataset
An instance of :class:`~pydicom.dataset.FileDataset` that represents
a parsed DICOM file.
Raises
------
InvalidDicomError
If `force` is ``False`` and the file is not a valid DICOM file.
TypeError
If `fp` is ``None`` or of an unsupported type.

--------
pydicom.dataset.FileDataset
