Content Date | (0008,0023) | 1 | The date the raw data creation was started.
Content Time | (0008,0033) | 1 | The time the raw data creation was started.
Acquisition DateTime | (0008,002A) | 3 | The date and time that the acquisition of data started. ### Note The synchronization of this time with an external clock is specified in the synchronization Module in Acquisition Time synchronized (0018,1800).
Content Label | (0070,0080) | 3 | A label that is used to identify this SOP Instance.
Content Description | (0070,0081) | 3 | A description of the content of the SOP Instance.
Concept Name Code Sequence | (0040,A043) | 3 | A coded description of the content of the SOP Instance. Only a single Item is permitted in this Sequence.
>Include Table 8.8-1 “Code Sequence Macro Attributes” | No Baseline CID is defined.
Image Laterality | (0020,0062) | 3 | Laterality of (possibly paired) body part examined. Enumerated Values: R right L left U unpaired B both left and right
Creator-Version UID | (0008,9123) | 1 | Unique identification of the equipment and version of the software that has created the Raw Data information. The UID allows one to avoid attempting to interpret raw data with an unknown format.
Referenced Instance Sequence | (0008,114A) | 3 | Other Instances significantly related to this Instance. One or more Items are permitted in this Sequence.
>Include Table 10-3 “Image SOP Instance Reference Macro Attributes” |
>Purpose of Reference Code Sequence | (0040,A170) | 1 | Describes the purpose for which the reference is made. Only a single Item shall be included in this Sequence. See Section C.7.6.16.2.5.1.
