INDEXED BY: MANUFACTURER & MODEL & MODALITY (B)
2006.582,.01 MANUFACTURER 0;1 FREE TEXT (Required)
INPUT TRANSFORM: K:$L(X)>30!($L(X)<1)!'(X'?1P.E) X
LAST EDITED: AUG 30, 1999
HELP-PROMPT: Enter the name of the manufacturer of this equipment.
DESCRIPTION: Name of the company the produces this equipment. The value of this field is a text that identifies
the manufacturer of the modality that is described in the current entry.
This name must be spelled exactly as it is presented in the headers of the image files that are
produced by modalities of this type.
RECORD INDEXES: B (#83)
2006.582,2 MODEL 0;2 FREE TEXT
INPUT TRANSFORM: K:$L(X)>20!($L(X)<1) X
LAST EDITED: AUG 30, 1999
HELP-PROMPT: Enter the name of the model of this equipment.
DESCRIPTION: The value of this field is a text that identifies the model of the modality that is described in
the current entry.
This name must be spelled exactly as it is presented in the headers of the image files that are
produced by modalities of this type.
RECORD INDEXES: B (#83)
2006.582,3 MODALITY 0;3 FREE TEXT
INPUT TRANSFORM: K:$L(X)>20!($L(X)<1) X
LAST EDITED: AUG 30, 1999
HELP-PROMPT: Enter the code for the modality.
DESCRIPTION: The value of this field is a code that identifies the type of modality for the current entry.
The possible values for this two-letter code are defined in the DICOM standard, and are also stored
in file 73.1, stored in ^RAMIS(73.1,...)
RECORD INDEXES: B (#83)
2006.582,4 DICOM TO TARGA PARAMETERS 0;4 FREE TEXT
Dicom To Targa Parameters

LAST EDITED: OCT 13, 1998
HELP-PROMPT: Enter the parameter list for the program dcmtotga.exe.
DESCRIPTION: The value of this field is a string that provides the parameters that are to be specified when the
program is called that converts an image in DICOM format to Targa(TM) format.
These parameters will apply to files that originate from the type of modality that is described in
the current entry.
When the parameters are different for the conversion to an 'clinical resolution' image than they
are for a 'full resolution' image, the value of this field consists of two parts, separated by a
slash ("/"). In that case, the first part specifies the parameters for clinical images, and the
second part specifies the parameters for the full images.

Accession Number Lookup
INPUT TRANSFORM: K:$L(X)>17!($L(X)<1) X
LAST EDITED: OCT 13, 1998
HELP-PROMPT: Enter the entry point for the Accession Number lookup code.
DESCRIPTION: The value of this field is a string that identifies the entry point that is called as a subroutine
when the DICOM Image Gateway needs to look up the Accession Number number, given the information
provided by the modality that is described in this entry.
In the name of this entry point, the caret that separates the name of the label from the name of
the routine is replaced by a period.
