The pointed-to image is the one with the highest IEN that has been processed by a DICOM Gateway. This value is being tracked for patient-safety reasons. At a number of sites it has happened that procedural mistakes during normal maintenance caused part of the Image File to "disappear". Keeping track of this highest IEN allows the imaging software to cause a "controlled shut-down" when such a situation occurs. | |
| 48 | last rad report pointer | LAST RAD REPORT POINTER;1 | POINTER | 74 | The value of this field is a pointer to the Rad/Nuc Report File (#74). The pointed-to report is the one with the highest IEN that has been processed by a DICOM Gateway. This value is being tracked for patient-safety reasons. At a number of sites it has happened that procedural mistakes during normal maintenance caused part of the Rad/Nuc Report to "disappear".

When querying the PACS, the query process will issue its queries according to this protocol for all studies that were conducted between the start and end dates that are registered in this field (and the next). Note that protocol-eras are allowed to overlap. The result of registering overlapping protocol eras will be that the query process will issues its requests according to all protocols that could have been valid at the time.

Possible values are 1 (do record information) and 0 (do NOT record any information). When a DICOM Gateway is installed at a new site, the value of this field is "false", and this field can only receive a "true" value through a manual operation from "programmer mode".

| 81 | multiframe counter | MULTIFRAME COUNTER;1 | NUMERIC | The value of this field is an integer number that records the progress through the various frames of a multi-frame image as data for that image is being received. Under normal circumstances, the various "frames" are converted to individual images, and there is no need to know the number of frames processed to any process other than the one receiving the image data. However, if that process is interrupted (user interrupt, network outage, power failure), a subsequent process will need to know which sub-images have already been created when it starts processing the re-transmission of the image data. | ||
