B.5.1 Specialization for Standard SOP Classes

B.5.1.1 Digital X-Ray Image Storage SOP Classes

The Digital X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class shall use the DX IOD with an Enumerated Value of FOR PRESENTATION for Presentation Intent Type (0008,0068).

The Digital X-Ray Image Storage - For Processing SOP Class shall use the DX IOD with an Enumerated Value of FOR PROCESSING for Presentation Intent Type (0008,0068).

An SCU or SCP of the Digital X-Ray Image Storage - For Processing SOP Class shall also support the Digital X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class.

Note

  1. The intent of this requirement is to ensure a useful level of interoperability by avoiding the situation where an SCU might support only the Digital X-Ray Image Storage - For Processing SOP Class and an SCP only the Digital X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class, or vice versa. The burden is therefore to support the Digital X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class as a "baseline".

  2. The term "support" is used in this section in the sense that an SCU or SCP must be capable of sending or receiving the For Presentation SOP Class. There is no intent to imply that an SCU must always send an instance of the For Presentation SOP Class when an instance of the For Processing SOP Class is sent.

    Nor is there any intent to imply that during Association establishment, that a Presentation Context for the For Presentation SOP Class has to be proposed by the initiator. However, an association acceptor may reject a For Presentation SOP Class Presentation Context if it accepts a For Processing SOP Class Presentation Context, and prefers that SOP Class, in which case it may no longer be able to "pass on" the object later as an SCU unless it is able to generate a For Presentation object.

    It is not possible for an SCP to determine from proposed Presentation Contexts whether or not an SCU "supports" (is capable of sending) both For Processing and For Presentation SOP Class Instances. Such a determination requires a priori knowledge of the information contained in the Conformance Statement for the SCU, as well as how the SCU is configured and operated. An SCU that supports both SOP Classes may well choose to only propose one or the other during Association establishment, depending on which Instances it actually intends to send over that particular association (although the SCU must be capable of sending instances of the For Presentation SOP Class if the SCP does not accept the For Processing).

    The intent of the requirement is that if an SCU is only capable of sending the For Presentation SOP Class, any SCP will be guaranteed to be able to receive it. Conversely, if an SCP is only capable of receiving the For Presentation SOP Class, any SCU will be guaranteed to be able to send it.

B.5.1.2 Digital Mammography X-Ray Image Storage SOP Classes

The Digital Mammography X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class shall use the Digital Mammography IOD with an Enumerated Value of FOR PRESENTATION for Presentation Intent Type (0008,0068).

The Digital Mammography X-Ray Image Storage - For Processing SOP Class shall use the Digital Mammography IOD with an Enumerated Value of FOR PROCESSING for Presentation Intent Type (0008,0068).

An SCU or SCP of the Digital Mammography X-Ray Image Storage - For Processing SOP Class shall also support the Digital Mammography X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class.

B.5.1.3 Digital Intra-Oral X-Ray Image Storage SOP Classes

The Digital Intra-Oral X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class shall use the Digital Intra-Oral X-Ray IOD with an Enumerated Value of FOR PRESENTATION for Presentation Intent Type (0008,0068).

The Digital Intra-Oral X-Ray Image Storage - For Processing SOP Class shall use the Digital Intra-Oral X-Ray IOD with an Enumerated Value of FOR PROCESSING for Presentation Intent Type (0008,0068).

An SCU or SCP of the Digital Intra-Oral X-Ray Image Storage - For Processing SOP Class shall also support the Digital Intra-Oral X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class.

B.5.1.6 Enhanced MR Image Storage and Legacy Converted Enhanced MR Image Storage SOP Class

An SCP of the Enhanced MR Image Storage or Legacy Converted Enhanced MR Image Storage SOP Class shall also support the Grayscale Softcopy Presentation State Storage SOP Class.

Note

This requirement is present in order to allow the exchange of graphical annotations created by an acquisition or conversion device.

B.5.1.7 Enhanced CT Image Storage and Legacy Converted Enhanced CT Image Storage SOP Class

An SCP of the Enhanced CT Image Storage or Legacy Converted Enhanced CT Image Storage SOP Class shall also support the Grayscale Softcopy Presentation State Storage SOP Class.

Note

This requirement is present in order to allow the exchange of graphical annotations created by an acquisition or conversion device.

B.5.1.8 Enhanced MR Color Image Storage SOP Class

An SCP of the Enhanced MR Image Storage SOP Class shall also support the Color Softcopy Presentation State Storage SOP Class.

Note

This requirement is present in order to allow the exchange of graphical annotations created by an acquisition device.

B.5.1.9 Basic Structured Display

An SCU of the Basic Structured Display Storage SOP Class that creates SOP Instances of the Class shall identify in its Conformance Statement the Composite Storage SOP Classes and Softcopy Presentation State Storage SOP Classes that are also supported by the SCU, and may be referenced by Basic Structured Display SOP Instances it creates. It shall identify in its Conformance Statement the values it may use in the Attributes Image Box Layout Type (0072,0304) and Type of Synchronization (0072,0434).

An SCP of the Basic Structured Display Storage SOP Class, when rendering SOP Instances of the Class, shall preserve the aspect ratio specified by the Nominal Screen Definition Sequence (0072,0102) Attributes Number of Vertical Pixels (0072,0104) and Number of Horizontal Pixels (0072,0106) without clipping.

Note

  1. The SCP is not required to display using the exact number of vertical and horizontal pixels. The SCP may use as much of its display screen as it desires, while maintaining the Structured Display aspect ratio.

  2. If the display screen has a different aspect ratio, the positioning of the display on the screen is unspecified (centered, left or right justified, top or bottom justified).

An SCP of the Basic Structured Display Storage SOP Class that is capable of rendering SOP Instances of the Class shall identify in its Conformance Statement the Composite Storage SOP Classes and Softcopy Presentation State Storage SOP Classes that are also supported by the SCP, and will be rendered when referenced by Basic Structured Display SOP Instances for display. It shall specify in its Conformance Statement the user display controls and interactions for the values of Image Box Layout Type (0072,0304) and Type of Synchronization (0072,0434) that it supports. It shall identify in its Conformance Statement its behavior when encountering a referenced Presentation State or other Composite Storage SOP Instance whose display it does not support, or an unsupported value of Image Box Layout Type or Type of Synchronization; such behavior shall include at a minimum a display to the user of the nature of the incompatibility.

B.5.1.10 Implant Template Storage SOP Classes

A device that is a Generic Implant Template Storage, Implant Assembly Template Storage, or Implant Template Group Storage SOP Class SCU may modify information in a SOP Instance that it has previously sent or received. When this SOP Instance is modified and sent to an SCP, it shall be assigned a new SOP Instance UID if there is addition, removal or update of any Attribute within:

  • Generic Implant Template Description Module

  • Generic Implant Template 2D Drawings Module

  • Generic Implant Template 3D Models Module

  • Generic Implant Template Mating Features Module

  • Generic Implant Template Planning Landmarks Module

  • Implant Assembly Template Module

  • Implant Template Group Module

  • Surface Mesh Module

Referential integrity between sets of related SOP instances shall be maintained.

B.5.1.11 Ophthalmic Axial Measurements Storage SOP Class

Ophthalmic axial measurements devices are used in the preoperative assessment of every cataract surgery patient. Ophthalmic axial measurements SOP Classes support ophthalmic axial measurements devices.

For a device that is both a SCU and a SCP of the Ophthalmic Axial Measurements Storage SOP Class, in addition to the behavior for the Storage Service Class specified in Section B.2.2, the following additional requirements are specified for Ophthalmic Axial Measurements Storage SOP Classes:

  • A SCP of this SOP Class shall support Level 2 Conformance as defined in Section B.4.1.

Note

This requirement means that all Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 Attributes defined in the Information Object Definition and Private Attributes associated with the SOP Class will be stored and may be accessed.

B.5.1.12 IOL Calculation Storage SOP Class

IOL (intraocular lens) calculation is used in the preoperative assessment of every cataract surgery patient. IOL Calculation SOP Classes support IOL calculation software, which may be located either on ophthalmic axial measurement devices or on a separate computer.

For a device that is both a SCU and a SCP of the IOL Calculation Storage SOP Class, in addition to the behavior for the Storage Service Class specified in Section B.2.2, the following additional requirements are specified for IOL Calculation Storage SOP Classes:

  • A SCP of this SOP Class shall support Level 2 Conformance as defined in Section B.4.1.

Note

This requirement means that all Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 Attributes defined in the Information Object Definition and Private Attributes associated with the SOP Class will be stored and may be accessed.

B.5.1.13 Intravascular OCT Image Storage SOP Classes

The Intravascular OCT Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class shall use the IVOCT IOD with an Enumerated Value of FOR PRESENTATION for Presentation Intent Type (0008,0068).

The Intravascular OCT Image Storage - For Processing SOP Class shall use the IVOCT IOD with an Enumerated Value of FOR PROCESSING for Presentation Intent Type (0008,0068).

An SCU or SCP of the Intravascular OCT Image Storage - For Processing SOP Class shall also support the Intravascular OCT Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class.

Note

The burden is therefore to support the Intravascular OCT Image Storage - For Presentation SOP Class as a "baseline".

  2. The term "support" is used in this section in the sense that an SCU or SCP must be capable of sending or receiving the For Presentation SOP Class. There is no intent to imply that an SCU must always send an instance of the For Presentation SOP Class when an instance of the For Processing SOP Class is sent.

    Nor is there any intent to imply that during Association establishment, that a Presentation Context for the For Presentation SOP Class has to be proposed by the initiator. However, an association acceptor may reject a For Presentation SOP Class Presentation Context if it accepts a For Processing SOP Class Presentation Context, and prefers that SOP Class, in which case it may no longer be able to "pass on" the object later as an SCU unless it is able to generate a For Presentation object.

    It is not possible for an SCP to determine from proposed Presentation Contexts whether or not an SCU "supports" (is capable of sending) both For Processing and For Presentation SOP Class Instances. Such a determination requires a priori knowledge of the information contained in the Conformance Statement for the SCU, as well as how the SCU is configured and operated. An SCU that supports both SOP Classes may well choose to only propose one or the other during Association establishment, depending on which Instances it actually intends to send over that particular association (although the SCU must be capable of sending instances of the For Presentation SOP Class if the SCP does not accept the For Processing).

    The intent of the requirement is that if an SCU is only capable of sending the For Presentation SOP Class, any SCP will be guaranteed to be able to receive it. Conversely, if an SCP is only capable of receiving the For Presentation SOP Class, any SCU will be guaranteed to be able to send it.

B.5.1.14 Ophthalmic Thickness Map Storage SOP Class

The Ophthalmic Thickness Map SOP Class encodes a topographic representation of the thickness/height measurements of the posterior eye.

For a device that is both a SCU and a SCP of the Ophthalmic Thickness Map Storage SOP Class, in addition to the behavior for the Storage Service Class specified in Section B.2.2, the following additional requirements are specified for Ophthalmic Thickness Map Storage SOP Classes:

  • A SCP of this SOP Class shall support Level 2 Conformance as defined in Section B.4.1.

Note

This requirement means that all Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 Attributes defined in the Information Object Definition and Private Attributes associated with the SOP Class will be stored and may be accessed.

B.5.1.15 Enhanced PET Image Storage and Legacy Converted Enhanced PET Image Storage SOP Class

An SCP of the Enhanced PET Image Storage or Legacy Converted Enhanced PET Image Storage SOP Class shall also support the Grayscale Softcopy Presentation State Storage SOP Class.

Note

This requirement is present in order to allow the exchange of graphical annotations created by an acquisition or conversion device.

B.5.1.16 Enhanced PET Image Storage SOP Classes

An SCP of the Enhanced PET Image Storage SOP Class shall also support the Grayscale Softcopy Presentation State Storage SOP Class.

Note

This requirement is present in order to allow the exchange of graphical annotations created by an acquisition device.

B.5.1.17 Corneal Topography Map Storage SOP Class

The Corneal Topography Map SOP Class encodes a topographic representation of the curvature and/or elevation measurements of corneal anterior and posterior surfaces (e.g., maps that display corneal curvatures, corneal elevations, and corneal power, etc.).

For a device that is both a SCU and a SCP of the Corneal Topography Map Storage SOP Class, in addition to the behavior for the Storage Service Class specified in Section B.2.2, the following additional requirements are specified for Corneal Topography Map Storage SOP Classes:

  • A SCP of this SOP Class shall support Level 2 Conformance as defined in Section B.4.1.

Note

This requirement means that all Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 Attributes defined in the Information Object Definition and Private Attributes associated with the SOP Class will be stored and may be accessed.
