Send all nine images to PACS and follow the test instructions in
-
Send images #1-5 as No-Burn

On the PACS review workstation, open PACS test image #1 (Patient ID 2000002).
Access the DICOM header information through a drop-down list, a button, or by right-clicking
the image and then selecting an option such as "information," "i," or "header." For help, contact
local IT support.
Verify Burn-on-Send mode by verifying that:
a.
The WC tag is 0028x1050 and the WW tag is 0028x1051
b.
The values are WC=5226\5226\5226 and WW=2654\1990\3981
Verify VOI-LUT tags as follows:
a.
Search the DICOM header for tag 0028x3010VOILUTSequence.
b.
Below that tag, verify that there are three additional tags:
*
0028x3002LUTDescriptor
*
0028x3003LUTExplanation
*
0028x3006LUTData
c.
Verify that each VOILUTSequence has a LUTExplanation set to either Normal, Harder,
or Softer.
Record the results in
Table
Open PACS test image #6 and view the DICOM header.
