Beam Angle. Finally, the distance from the X-Ray source to the object of interest in the direction of the X-Ray beam is called SOD and is calculated from the other distances.
DPx: Imager Pixel Spacing (0018,1164)
ISO: Source Isocenter Distance (0018,9402)
SID: Distance Source to Detector (0018,1110)
TH: Table Height (0018,1130)
TO: Distance Object to Table Top (0018,9403)
Beam Angle: Beam Angle (0018,9449)
Note
The equipment related Beam Angle (0018,9449) Attribute shall be consistent with the patient oriented Positioner Primary Angle (0018,1510) and Positioner Secondary Angle (0018,1511) together with the patient orientation on the table specified in Patient Orientation Code Sequence (0054,0410) Attributes.
Figure C.8.19.6-1 and Figure C.8.19.6-2 illustrate the usage of the Attributes under the conditions laid out above.
