The Attributes at the first level of the General Contributing Sources Macro contain information that is common to all the Referenced SOP Instances included in the Contributing SOP Instances Reference Sequence. This allows to not duplicate information when the contributing instances are single-frame objects and/or when they are in different Series with the same protocol and manufacturer information.

10.14 HL7v2 Hierarchic Designator Macro
Table 10-17 describes the Attributes for identifying an entity (system, organization, agency, or department) that has responsibility for managing or assigning a defined set of instance identifiers (such as placer or filler number, Patient identifiers, provider identifiers, etc.). This entity could be a particular health care application such as a registration system that assigns Patient identifiers, a govern- mental entity such as a licensing authority that assigns professional identifiers or drivers' license numbers, or a facility where such identifiers are assigned.
Note
This definition is identical to HL7 v2.5, Section 2.A.33, with only minor changes for editorial style.
These Attributes are equivalent to the components of the HL7 v2 Hierarchic Designator (HD) and Entity Identifier (EI) data types (see
HL7 v2 Chapter 2.A).
If both Local Namespace Entity ID (0040,0031) and Universal Entity ID (0040,0032) are present, they shall refer to the same entity.
