                DESCRIPTION:      This is a list of 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

                                  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.
