All Implemented Interfaces:

public class BarcodeValue extends AbstractDataElementWrapper implements LongTextWrapper
Name: Barcode Value
Keyword: BarcodeValue
Tag: (2200,0005)
Value Representation: LT
Value Multiplicity: 1
  • Described in the contexts: as follows:
    Attribute Name: Barcode Value
    Type: 3
    Attribute Description:

    Barcode interpreted from a scanned label.

    Note
    1. In the case of a scanned patient label, this may be the same as Patient ID (0010,0020), but it is included in an Instance level Module rather than a Patient level Module since barcodes may also be used to identify lower level entities. This might be obtained by scanning the patient's wrist band, request form, or extracting a burned-in label from the image pixel data, for example.

    2. In the case of a scanned slide label, this may be the same as Container Identifier (0040,0512) in the Specimen Module.


  • Described in the contexts: as follows:
    Attribute Name: Barcode Value
    Type:
    Attribute Description:

    String that describes the bar code value to be printed on the media label.

    Note It is SCU responsibility to convey a value for this Attribute coherent in length and content with the requested Barcode Symbology (2200,0006).
