#### 8.7.3.4 Transfer Syntax

The Default Transfer Syntax for DICOM objects contained in a payload shall be Explicit VR Little Endian Uncompressed "1.2.840.10008.1.2.1". If the Transfer Syntax is not specified in a message, then the Default Transfer Syntax shall be used.

### Note

This is different from the Default Transfer Syntax defined in Section 10.1 “DICOM Default Transfer Syntax” in PS3.5, which is Implicit VR Little Endian.

Implicit VR Little Endian, or Explicit VR Big Endian shall not be used.

The response payload encoding requirements are defined in Section 8.7.8.

### Note

The transfer syntax can be one of the JPIP Transfer Syntaxes, in which case the returned objects will contain the URL of the JPIP provider for retrieving the pixel data.

The origin server may support additional Transfer Syntaxes.
