Note
1.ForregularlysampledtomosynthesisslicesreconstructedfromprojectionX-Raydata,avalueofVOLUMEorSAMPLED is appropriate.
2.For slabs constructed by averaging adjacent regularly sampled tomosynthesis slices to produce thicker slices, a value of SAMPLED is appropriate.
3.For mathematically generated 2D views (e.g., constructed as Maximum Intensity Projections) of regularly sampled tom- osynthesis slices, a value of SAMPLED is appropriate.

C.8.21.1.1.4 Source Irradiation Event Sequence
The Source Irradiation Event Sequence (0008,3011) contains the Irradiation Event UIDs of all the original projection images that were used in the 3D reconstruction process of this X-Ray 3D Image, regardless whether the projection images are encoded as DICOM images or not. Therefore, it allows relating the reconstructed X-Ray 3D image to its contributing irradiation events contained in the Radiation Dose SR.
The equipment generating the projection images associates these images to one or more Irradiation Event UIDs. All these UIDs are then included in the Radiation Dose SR as well as in the appropriate projection DICOM images. An X-Ray 3D image reconstructed from a set of projection images will include those Irradiation Event UIDs of the images that participated to that 3D reconstruction. In case the projection images are not encoded as DICOM images, the X-Ray equipment is responsible for including the contributing Ir- radiation Event UIDs in any further X-Ray 3D image reconstructed on that equipment.
An X-Ray 3D image derived from one or more X-Ray 3D images will include in the derived image all the Irradiation Event UIDs of the source images.
