Secondary Capture Equipment
Digitized Video (DV)
The equipment generating the video signal.
The equipment digitizing the video signal.
Digital Interface (DI)
The equipment on the sending side of the digital interface.
The equipment on the receiving side of the digital interface.
Digitized Film (DF)
The equipment that created the film.
The equipment digitizing the film.
Workstation (WSD)
Application dependent, but often the equipment that placed the image on the workstation screen, or created the modified image.
The equipment that captured the image from the screen, or placed the modified image into a DICOM SOP Instance.
Scanned Document (SD)
The equipment that created the document.
The equipment digitizing the document.
Scanned Image (SI)
The equipment that created the image that was digitized.
The equipment digitizing the image.
Drawing (DRW)
The equipment that created the drawing.
The equipment digitizing (or rasterizing) the drawing.
Synthetic Image (SYN)
The equipment creating the original images from which the synthetic image was derived.
The equipment creating the synthetic image.
