  • Causa
    An issue has been identified regarding rf projection images (12 diacom sop classes). if user measures on rf image, “cal” (calibration) is not displayed & measurement is not correct, then the “cal” label is not displayed on the projection images after calibration is performed which should be present if the measurement is presented based on pixel spacing. measurements are incorrect because efilm is using the imager pixel spacing dicom tag, but it should be using the pixel spacing tag if the value for pixel spacing is present & is differing from imager pixel pacing tag. based on industry practice for projection images, if both the imager pixel spacing and pixel spacing attributes are present and differ, the pixel spacing attribute should be used and the "cal" (for calibrated) label should be displayed.A user will likely be able to notice that the measurements are not as expected. potential health consequence includes delay in patient care and/or change in recommendation for treatment.
  • Acción
