The Surface Scan Mesh IOD specifies a triangulated surface generated by an optical surface scanner or a 3D post-processing application. The Surface Scan Mesh IOD stores a surface including UV mapping and change history combined with device specific parameters.
The E-R Model in Section A.1.2 depicts those components of the DICOM Information Model that are referenced by the Surface Scan Mesh IOD. Below the Series IE, only the Surface IE is used.
