Table C.8-126. CT Pixel Value Transformation Macro Attributes

Attribute Name | Tag | Type | Attribute Description
--- | --- | --- | ---
Pixel Value Transformation Sequence | (0028,9145) | 1 | Contains the Attributes involved in the transformation of stored pixel values. Only a single Item shall be included in this Sequence.
>Rescale Intercept | (0028,1052) | 1 | The value b in relationship between stored values (SV) and the output units. Output units = m*SV + b.
>Rescale Slope | (0028,1053) | 1 | m in the equation specified by Rescale Intercept (0028,1052).
>Rescale Type | (0028,1054) | 1 | Specifies the output units of Rescale Slope (0028,1053) and Rescale Intercept (0028,1052). See Section C.11.1.1.2 for further explanation. If Frame Type (0008,9007) Value 1 of this frame is ORIGINAL and Frame Type (0008,9007) Value 3 is not LOCALIZER, the value shall be HU (Hounsfield Units).
