E.8.5.3 Standard Extended Basic Grayscale Image Box SOP Class

SOP Class : Basic Grayscale Image Box SOP

Attribute : Bits Stored (0028,0028)

DICOM only specifies 8 and 12 for number of bits stored. The EXAMPLE-PRINT-SERVER-MANAGEMENT supports the number of bits stored to be from 8 through 16 bits.

SOP Class : Basic Grayscale Image Box SOP

Attribute : High Bit (0028,0028)

Extensions : High Bit positions 7 - 15 are supported.

DICOM specifies that the high bit must be the 7th or 11th bit (for 8 or 12 bits stored, respectively). The EXAMPLE-PRINT-SERVER-MANAGEMENT supports the high bit to be the number of bits stored minus one. For example, if the number of bits stored is 13, the high bit is 12.
