public class MeasurementLaterality extends AbstractDataElementWrapper implements CodeStringWrapper

Name: Measurement Laterality
Keyword: MeasurementLaterality
Tag: (0024,0113)
Value Representation: CS
Value Multiplicity: 1

Described in the contexts:
- Visual Field Static Perimetry Test Measurements Module > Measurement Laterality
as follows:
Attribute Name: Measurement Laterality
Type: 1
Attribute Description:
Laterality of body part (eye) examined.

See DICOM Standard Part 3 - Section C.8.26.4.1.1 for further explanation.

Enumerated Values:

R

right

L

left

B

both left and right together

This Attribute is mandatory, in order to ensure that measurements may be positioned correctly relative to one another for display.

Laterality (0020,0060) is a Series level Attribute and must be the same for all Measurements in the Series, hence it must be absent if multiple instances from different eyes are encoded.
Described in the contexts:
- General Ophthalmic Refractive Measurements Module > Measurement Laterality
as follows:
Attribute Name: Measurement Laterality
Type: 3
Attribute Description:
Laterality of refractive measurement performed.

Enumerated Values:

R

right

L

left

B

both left and right together
1. Laterality (0020,0060) is a Series level Attribute and must be the same for all Measurements in the Series, hence it must be absent if multiple instances from different eyes or lenses are encoded.
2. Needs to be consistent with any other laterality information contained at the Measurement level.
