C.8.13.4 MR Pulse Sequence Module
The primary purpose of this Module is to identify the pulse sequence and variations on that, which was used in creation of the image. Terminology is intended to be neutral, and allow equivalent sequences provided by different vendors to be classified the same.
Table C.8-87 specifies the Attributes of the MR Pulse Sequence Module.
