The FSU requirement is not defined for STD-CTMR-DVD profile.
The Detached Patient management SOP Class was formerly defined in these profiles, but has been retired.
The STD-CTMR-MOD41 application profile requires the 130 mm 4.1GB R/W MOD physical medium with the PCDOS Media Format, as defined in PS3.12.
The STD-CTMR-CD application profile requires the 120 mm CD-R physical medium with the ISO 9660 Media Format, as defined in PS3.12.
The STD-CTMR-DVD-RAM application profile requires the 120 mm DVD-RAM medium, as defined in PS3.12.
The STD-CTMR-DVD application profile requires any of the 120 mm DVD media other than DVD-RAM, as defined in PS3.12.
Conformant Application Entities shall include in the DICOMDIR File a Basic Directory IOD containing Directory Records at the Patient and subsidiary levels appropriate to the SOP Classes in the File-set. All DICOM files in the File-set incorporating SOP Instances defined for the specific Application Profile shall be referenced by Directory Records.
DICOMDIRs with no directory information are not allowed by this Application Profile.
File Set Creators and Updaters are required to generate the mandatory elements specified in Chapter F in PS3.3 . Table E.3-2 specifies the additional associated keys. At each directory record level other additional data elements can be added, but it is not required that File Set Readers be able to use them as keys. Refer to the Basic Directory IOD in PS3.3.
Directory Records of type IMAGE shall include the mandatory attributes from the Frame of Reference and Image Plane modules, if present in the composite image object, as specified in PS3.3 and included in Table E.3-2, in order to allow the image to be referenced to a localizer image or other orthogonal image. The Rows (0028,0010) and Columns (0028,0011) attributes are required in order to facilitate annotation of such a localizer.
The Frame of Reference module is specified in PS3.3 as mandatory for the CT and MR composite information objects, but not for Secondary Capture objects.
Directory Records of type SERIES or IMAGE may include Icon Images. The icon pixel data shall be as specified in PS3.3 Icon Image Key Definition, and restricted such that Photometric Interpretation (0028,0004) shall be MONOCHROME2 or PALETTE COLOR, Bits Allocated (0028,0100) and Bits Stored (0028,0101) shall be equal to 8, and Rows (0028,0010) and Columns (0028,0011) shall be equal to 64.
This section defines other parameters in the STD-CTMR profiles that need to be specified in order to ensure interoperable information interchange.

The Basic Directory Information Object definition in PS3.3 defines the following attributes as Type 1 or 2: for PATIENT directory records: (0010,0010) Patient's Name; for STUDY directory records: (0008,0050) Accession Number, (0008,0020) Study Date, (0008,1030) Study Description; for SERIES directory records: (0008,0060) Modality. Hence these are not redefined here.
The Basic Directory Information Object definition in PS3.3 allows for the optional inclusion of Icon Images at the IMAGE or SERIES level. These remain optional for this profile, and the choice of whether or not to include Icon Images for every image or series, or in a more selective manner, is left up to the implementer. E.3.3.3 describes restrictions that apply to Icon Images that are included in this profile.
The attributes listed in Table E.3-3 used within CT Image files, those listed in Table E.3-4 used within MR Image files, those listed in Table E.3-5 used within grayscale SC Image files, and those listed in Table E.3-6 used within color SC Image files, shall take the values specified, which are more specific than, but must be consistent with, those specified in the definition of the CT, MR and SC Image Information Object Definitions in PS3.3.
