This file contains an entry for every type of object handled by the VistA Imaging System. It is exported with data. All sites must
have entries for the data types distributed in order to display objects sent via multimedia mail.
The Object Type file handles objects of various types. These include:
* still images
* image groups
* graphics or waveforms
* scanned documents
* audio files
Other types are expected in the future (i.e., image overlays, motion video chips, and office automation files). An object, such
as an image series, may actually consist of multiple objects. In this case, the object type is Group. The Object Group multiple
field is used to point to a set of objects in the Image file. Each object type has associated methods (software routines) for
performing certain actions. For example, there are methods for displaying images and image abstracts. The group type is used to
combine multiple objects of the same or different types to create complex objects.
There are different image types, for example:
* black and white high-resolution x-rays
* black and white ultrasound images (lower resolution)
* pseudo-color nuclear medicine scans
* medium resolution true color bronchoscopy images
* pathology images
Each type of object has a number of specific characteristics, including the methods required to display them. For example, each
object type has a type name and an associated display method or window.
All accesses to objects use the file finder routine ^MAGFILE or ^MAGFILEA to find the network location needed. Different entry
points of this routine will find locations of full files, abstract files, and jukebox copies of files. In addition, the network
write location will be returned for image captures.

HELP-PROMPT: NAME MUST BE 3-30 CHARACTERS, NOT NUMERIC OR STARTING WITH PUNCTUATION
DESCRIPTION: Each kind of data supported by the Imaging System has an entry in the Object Type file. The Object
Type file manages the kinds of actions which that type of object can have and the routines that are
executed for each action.
