##### C.8.20.2.3 Segmentation Type and Segmentation Fractional Type

A Segmentation Type (0062,0001) of BINARY indicates the segmented property is present with a value of 1 and absent with a value of 0.

For a Segmentation Type (0062,0001) of FRACTIONAL the segmented property is defined as a value from zero to the Maximum Fractional Value (0062,000E). A FRACTIONAL segmentation shall be further specified via Segmentation Fractional Type (0062,0010).

Enumerated Values of Segmentation Fractional Type (0062,0010):

PROBABILITY

  Defines the probability, as a ratio of the pixel value to the Maximum Fractional Value, that the segmented property occupies the spatial area defined by the voxel.

OCCUPANCY

  Defines the proportion of the pixel volume occupied by the segmented property as the ratio of the pixel value to the Maximum Fractional Value.
