Sincethetwovolumesarereconstructedfromthesameprojections,thereconstructionapplicationwillusethesamepatientcoordinate​ system on both volumes so that the spatial location of the object of interest in both volumes will be the same. Therefore the two X-​ Ray 3D Instances will have the same Frame of Reference (FoR) UID. If the originating 2D Instances do not deliver a value of FoR​ UID, a new FoR UID has to be created for the reconstructed volumes.​

TTT.2.3.3.1.2 Pixel Measures Macro Recommendations​

The detailed size of the volume element (Pixel Spacing for x/y dimension and Slice Thickness for z dimension) may be different​ between the full field of view reconstruction and the sub-region reconstruction.​

Table TTT.2.3-2. Pixel Measures Macro Recommendations​

TTT.2.3.3.1.3 Plane Position (Patient) Macro Recommendations​

The plane position of the first slice in the first volume may have a different value than in the second volume, as the sub-region volume​ can be smaller and shifted with respect to the full field of view volume.​

- Standard -​

TTT.2.3.3.1.4 Plane Orientation (Patient) Macro Recommendations​

The plane orientation could be different in the second volume depending on the application needs, e.g., to align the slices with the​ object of interest.​

TTT.2.3.3.1.5 Frame Content Macro Recommendations​

This module encodes the timing information of the frames, as well as dimension and stack index values.​

Table TTT.2.3-3. Frame Content Macro Recommendations​

TTT.2.3.3.1.6 Frame Anatomy Macro Recommendations​

The volume directly reconstructed from a sub-region of each of the original projection X-Ray frames does not necessarily reflect the​ same anatomy or laterality as the full field of view volume. Therefore the Frame Anatomy macro may point to a different anatomic​ context than the one documented for the originating frames.​

TTT.2.3.4 Example​

In this example, the slices of the two volumes are reconstructed in the axial plane of the patient; the row direction is aligned in the​ positive x-direction of the patient (right-left) and the column direction is aligned in the positive y-direction of the patient (anterior-pos-​ terior).​

The full field of view reconstruction in encoded with the Instance UID "Z1" and consists of a 512 cube volume of 0.2 mm of voxel size.​ The sub-region reconstruction in encoded with the Instance UID "Z2" and consists of a 256 cube volume of the voxel size of 0.1 mm.​

Both volumes share the same Frame of Reference UID.​

TTT.2.4 Case #4: Multiple Rotations, One Or More 2D Instances, One Reconstruction, One X-​ Ray 3D Instance​

This application case is related to a high resolution reconstruction from several rotations around the same anatomy.​

TTT.2.4.1 User Scenario​

Theimageacquisitionsystemperformsmultiple2Drotationalacquisitionsaroundthepatientwithmovementsinthesameoropposite​ directions in the patient's transverse plane. A single volume is reconstructed from the acquired data (e.g., through "back-projection"​ algorithm). The reconstruction can either occur on the same system (e.g., Acquisition Modality) or a secondary processing system​ (e.g., Co-Workstation).​

The reconstructed Volume needs to be encoded and saved for further use.​

TTT.2.4.2 Encoding Outline​

The rotational acquisitions can be encoded either as a single instance (e.g., "C") containing several rotations or as several instances​ (e.g., "C1", "C2", etc.) containing one rotation per instance. The rotational acquisitions can either be encoded as XA Image(s) with​ limited frame-specific Attributes or as Enhanced XA Image(s), with frame-specific Attributes encoded that inform the algorithms to​ reconstruct a volume.​

The reconstructed volume data is encoded as a single X-Ray 3D Angiographic instance. The reconstructed region covers typically​ the full field of view of the projected matrix size.​

All frames of the original XA Images or Enhanced XA Images are used to reconstruct the volume.​

TTT.2.4.3.1 2D X-Ray Angiographic Image IOD​

This scenario is based on the encoding of the different rotations in one or more 2D instance(s), which can be encoded either as X-​ Ray Angiography or Enhanced XA Images.​

TTT.2.4.3.1.1 Frame of Reference Module Recommendations​

In the case of multiple source 2D Instances, the acquisition equipment assumes that the patient has not moved between the different​ rotations. This module encodes the same FoR UID in all the rotations, identifying a common spatial relationship between them, thus​ allowing the 3D reconstruction to use the projections of all the rotations to perform a single volume reconstruction.​

If the source 2D Instances do not provide a value of FoR UID, it has to be created for the reconstructed volume.​

Table TTT.2.4-1. Frame of Reference Module Recommendations​

Note​

The case where all the source 2D Instances have the same FoR UID is the "lucky" case. If no FoR UID value is provided in​ the 2D Instances, or if the FoR UIDs are different, there should be an additional 2D registration step before performing the​ 3D reconstruction.​

TTT.2.4.3.2.2 X-Ray 3D Angiographic Acquisition Module Recommendations​

There are multiple acquisition contexts, one per rotation of the equipment. This module encodes the frame numbers of the source​ SOP instance that belong to each acquisition context, as well as the important technical and physical parameters of the source SOP​ instances used to create the X-Ray 3D Angiographic instance.​
