>Dear colleagues,
>
>Thanks to those of you who have commented on SR and VL Supplements.
>
>You will find new versions of Structured Reporting and Visible Light
>Supplements (S-23 and S-15) in the image-management/DICOM directory of the
>Duke standards server. They are also available on the NEMA server
>(ftp.nema.org/dicom/docs/wg6). Both documents have been refined
>significantly. The coded-entry data elements are now specified in a
>single-row streamlined format, thanks to global coded-entry attributes now
>being in Section 5.3.
>
>The Modality specifications for VL are updated, based on input from
>committee and individuals. The Measurements Module of SR has been revised to
>fully support primary and derived measurements. The Module is designed to
>use the LOINC Codes. The description of image-acquisition conditions is
>ready for review. The concepts of Imaging Subject, Observations Subject,
>Observer, Interpretation Procedure Step, Diagnostic Imaging Performed
>Procedure Step Manager, and Procedure Report Manager have been clarified and
>used consistently throughout the specifications. "Readability" is improved.
>Your input is needed for further improvements.
>
>Please send an E-mail note if you have questions or suggestions about the
>documents.
>
>Dean
