Indicates whether or not quality control material (such as calibration or control material, or a phantom) is present in this image.
Enumerated Values:
- YES
-
the image contains only quality control material
- NO
-
the image does not contain quality control material
- BOTH
-
the image contains both subject (patient) and quality control information
If this Attribute is absent, then the image may or may not be a quality control or phantom image. The phantom device or quality control material in the image can be described using the Device Module. See Section C.7.6.12.
Note
Examples of the presence of both subject and quality control information include:
-
presence of objects of known density in radiographic images for calibration
-
presence of control material for immunohistochemistry within slide images
