Preferred Label : Imaging Process Protocol Element;
NCIt related terms : ImagingProcessProtocolElement;
NCIt definition : A set of parameter values necessary to obtain or reconstruct a set of images for an
imaging process protocol.;
Alternative definition : BRIDG 5.3: A set of parameter values necessary to obtain or reconstruct a set of images
for an imaging process protocol. EXAMPLE(S): A chest Protocol might include three
elements: two localizer CT radiographs (AP and Lateral) and a single helical scan,
each of which would be described in separate steps with different parameter values.
A CT Protocol frequently specifies multiple reconstructions. For example, a single
helical Acquisition Element may be reconstructed once as thin slices and a second
time as thick slices. OTHER NAME(S): NOTE(S): This class combines the common concept
for the process protocol element from the DICOM CT Defined Acquisition Technique Module,
the DICOM CT Defined Reconstruction Technique Module, DICOM CT Performed Acquisition
Technique Module and the DICOM CT Performed Reconstruction Technique Module.;
