C.8.4.13.1 NM Multi-gated Acquisition Attribute Descriptions
C.8.4.13.1.1 Data Information Sequence
Data Information Sequence (0054,0063) shall contain a single Item that applies to the sum of all angular views, except when Image Type (0008,0008) Value 3 is GATED TOMO. In this case it shall have either a single Item that applies to the sum of all angular views, or it shall have one Item for each angular view.
C.8.4.13.1.2 Time Slot Time
The Time Slot Time (0054,0073) records the effective imaging time of each Time Slot. For example, if some of the accepted beats are shorter than others then the last frames may not receive a contribution from the shorter beats. The Time Slot Time for a Time Slot is the total acquisition time for that Time Slot. It is approximately equal to Frame Time (0018,1063) multiplied by the number of accepted beats contributing to the Time Slot.
C.8.4.14 NM Phase Module
Table C.8-14 contains Attributes that describe dynamic phases of a dynamic acquisition image performed on the patient. This Module is present only when Image Type (0008,0008), Value 3, is equal to DYNAMIC. A phase is defined as a collection of frames in which the acquisition time per frame and the time delay between frames remains constant. A new phase shall be defined whenever there is a change in the time between frames, the acquisition time per frame, or the position of the patient relative to the detector.
