Attribute Description |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Visual Field Horizontal Extent |
(0024,0010) |
1 |
The maximum horizontal angular subtend (diameter or width) of the tested visual field, in degrees. |
|
Visual Field Vertical Extent |
(0024,0011) |
1 |
The maximum vertical angular subtend (diameter or height) of the tested visual field, in degrees. |
|
Visual Field Shape |
(0024,0012) |
1 |
The shape of the visual field tested. Defined Terms:
|
|
Screening Test Mode Code Sequence |
(0024,0016) |
1C |
Mode used to determine how the starting luminance values and expected thresholds are chosen. Only a single Item shall be included in this sequence. Required if Content Item Modifier Sequence (0040,0441) within Performed Protocol Code Sequence (0040,0260) contains an item with the value (R-42453, SRT, "Screening"). May be present otherwise. |

|
Maximum Stimulus Luminance |
(0024,0018) |
1 |
Maximum luminance of stimulus, in candelas per square meter (cd/m²). |
|
Background Luminance |
(0024,0020) |
1 |
Background luminance of the device, in candelas per square meter (cd/m²). NoteThis value is easily convertible to apostilb, which is used only in perimetry and is not a standardized unit. |
|
Stimulus Color Code Sequence |
(0024,0021) |
1 |
Color of light stimulus presented to the patient. Only a single Item shall be included in this sequence. |
|
Background Illumination Color Code Sequence |
(0024,0024) |
1 |
Color of the background illumination of the visual field device. Only a single Item shall be included in this sequence. |
|
Stimulus Area |
(0024,0025) |
1 |
Area of light stimulus presented to the patient, in degrees squared. |
|
Stimulus Presentation Time |
(0024,0028) |
1 |
The duration of time that a light stimulus is presented to a patient per each individual test point, in milliseconds. NoteThis time is the same for each stimulus presentation. |
