This attribute was not initially required in DICOM Segmentation image IOD, making complete interpretation of those objects (fusion with series of different orientation/geometry, calculation of measurements, etc), impossible in the general case. This omission was remedied in DICOM CP-1427 ftp://medical.nema.org/medical/dicom/final/cp1427_ft.pdf.afehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01530511910880106461noreply@blogger.com
