C.8.4.11.1 NM Detector Attribute Descriptions
C.8.4.11.1.1 Focal Distance
Focal Distance (0018,1182) for NM Image data is the focal distance, in mm for converging or diverging collimators, measured from the front face of the detector to the focus. Positive values indicate converging and negative values indicate diverging collimators. A value of 0 means infinite distance for parallel collimation.
C.8.4.11.1.2 Focus Center
X Focus Center (0018,1183) and Y Focus Center (0018,1184) for NM Image data is used to define the projection of the focus for a converging or diverging collimator within the un-zoomed Field of View. It is defined in mm for row and column relative to the center of the un-zoomed Field of View.
C.8.4.11.1.3 Zoom Center
Zoom Center (0028,0032) is the offset between the un-zoomed camera field of view and field of view, measured from the center of the un-zoomed camera field of view to the center the of the zoomed field of view. The offset is measured in mm in the un-zoomed camera FOV dimensions. Positive values are to the right and down from the un-zoomed center, as viewed from the image plane. When this Attribute is not given, the Zoom Center is assumed to be 0\0.
C.8.4.11.1.4 Zoom Factor

Note
Zoom Factor (0028,0031) is informational only. Pixel Spacing (0028,0030) already takes account of this and any other changes to pixel size.
C.8.4.11.1.5 Center of Rotation Offset
Center of Rotation Offset (0018,1145) is the average amount of offset in mm between the Detector Field of View center and the physicalcenterofrotationofthegantryforcircularorbitalscans.Positivevaluesindicatethephysicalcenteristotherightoftheimage plane center.
If:
1.Image Type (0008,0008) Value 3 is TOMO or GATED TOMO, and
2.Corrected Image (0028,0051) does not include the value "COR", and
3.Center of Rotation Offset (0018,1145) is non-zero,
then the receiver should assume that Center of Rotation correction has not already been done.
