DICOM PS3.17 2024e - Explanatory Information

E.3.3 Example 3: Calcification and Mass Detection, Temporal Differencing With Findings

The patient in Example 2 returns for another mammogram. A more comprehensive mammography CAD device processes the current mammogram; analyses are performed that determine some Content Items for Overall and Individual Impression/Recommendations. Portions of the prior mammography CAD report (Example 2) are incorporated into this report. In the current mammogram the number of calcifications in the RCC has increased, and the size of the mass in the left breast has increased from 1 to 4 cm2.

Mammograms as Described in Example 3

Figure E.3-16. Mammograms as Described in Example 3


Italicized entries (xxx) in the following table denote references to or by-value inclusion of Content Tree items reused from the prior Mammography CAD SR instance (Example 2).

While the Image Library contains references to Content Tree items reused from the prior Mammography CAD SR instance, the images are actually used in the mammography CAD analysis and are therefore not italicized as indicated above.
