Attribute Description

Acquisition Device Type Code Sequence

(0022,0015)

1

Describes the type of acquisition device.

Only a single Item shall be included in this Sequence.

>Include Table 8.8-1 “Code Sequence Macro Attributes”

BCID 4210 “Ophthalmic Tomography Acquisition Device”.

Light Path Filter Type Stack Code Sequence

(0022,0017)

2

Filters used in the light source path.

Zero or more Items shall be included in this Sequence.

>Include Table 8.8-1 “Code Sequence Macro Attributes”

BCID 4204 “Ophthalmic Filter”.

>Light Path Filter Pass-Through Wavelength

(0022,0001)

3

Nominal pass-through wavelength of light path filter in nm.

>Light Path Filter Pass Band

(0022,0002)

3
