Greetings,
I am trying to extract as much data as possible from both DICOM and
HL7 (study description, series description, etc.) for all images
stored on our PACS, in order to further manipulate the data.
I understand that the response times vary by tissue, but is there a "foolproof" way to distinguish T1 from T2 by dicom data alone? In
other words, is there a standard calculation that can be made on:
(0018,0080) RepetitionTime
(0018,0081) EchoTime
In order to flag a series correctly, or do I need to rely on the
series description .. (and if so, is the series description a reliable
way to do this?)
Thanks
RLtypically would expect this to be part of the Image Type (0008,0008)
