  • Described in the contexts: as follows:
    Attribute Name: KVP
    Type: 3
    Attribute Description:

    Peak kilo voltage output of the x-ray generator.


  • Described in the contexts: as follows:
    Attribute Name: KVP
    Type: 1C
    Attribute Description:

    Exact peak kilo voltage output of the X-Ray generator used for this projection.

    Required if present and consistent in the contributing SOP Instances. Required if Modality (0008,0060) is MG.


  • Described in the contexts: as follows:
    Attribute Name: KVP
    Type: 1C
    Attribute Description:

    Average of the peak kilo voltage outputs of the X-Ray generator used for all frames.

    Required if present and consistent in the contributing SOP Instances. Required if Modality (0008,0060) is MG.


  • Described in the contexts: as follows:
    Attribute Name: KVP
    Type: 1C
    Attribute Description:

    Nominal peak kilo voltage output of the X-Ray generator used.

    If Multi-energy Source Technique (0018,9368) in Multi-energy CT X-Ray Source Sequence (0018,9365) (of the referenced Multi-energy CT Path Index (0018,937A)) is “SWITCHING_SOURCE”, this value is the nominal peak value for a switching phase. The switching phase is identified by the value of X-Ray Source Index (0018,9366) in the Multi-energy CT Path Sequence (0018,9379) corresponding to the value of Referenced Path Index (0018,9378) in this Sequence.

    Due to limitations of the generating hardware the actual voltage may not reach the nominal peak value.

    Required if Frame Type (0008,9007) Value 1 of this frame is ORIGINAL or Image Type (0008,0008) Value 1 is ORIGINAL. May be present otherwise.


  • Described in the contexts: as follows:
    Attribute Name: KVP
