### Note

1. Some applications and View Modifier ACR MQCM 1999 equivalents have been extended by DICOM to incorporate additional known clinical use cases. The View Modifier ACR MQCM 1999 equivalent indicates its use as a prefix (shown by trailing "…") or suffix (shown by preceding "…") to the View ACR MQCM 1999 equivalent, or replacement for the View ACR MQCM 1999 equivalent.

2. While SRT is the preferred Coding Scheme Designator for SNOMED, regulatory approval of mammography systems makes changes to such systems problematic. Implementers should be aware that many systems will continue to use the deprecated designator SNM3 for certain terms in this context group. It is recommended that implementations receiving Mammography Image or CAD SOP Instances support both SNM3 and SRT as equivalent Coding Scheme Designators for Attributes or Content Items that use this Context Group.
