Value Representation: CS
Value Multiplicity: 1
  • Described in the contexts: as follows:
    Attribute Name: Decomposition Method
    Type: 1
    Attribute Description:

    Method used to decompose the acquired Multi-energy CT data into basis data.

    Defined Terms:

    PROJECTION_BASED

    The acquired projection data was fully decomposed into basis projection data (i.e. sinograms).

    IMAGE_BASED

    The acquired projection data was fully reconstructed into images before being decomposed into basis image data.

    HYBRID

    The acquired projection data was reconstructed using knowledge in both projection and image space to produce basis image data. Decomposition and image reconstruction may be performed in a one-step approach.

    1. Basis images and basis projection data are not necessarily instantiated as DICOM Instances.

    2. There may be additional processing steps (e.g. linear combination of basis data) creating the result image.
