Class FrameSet
A class to describe a set of frames sharing common characteristics suitable for display or analysis as an entity.
There is no constructor or factory method, since one or more FrameSet
s is created by using SetOfFrameSets
.
The list of "distinguishing" attributes that are used to determine commonality is currently fixed, and includes the unique identifying attributes at the Patient, Study, Equipment levels, the Modality and SOP Class, and ImageType as well as the characteristics of the Pixel Data, and those attributes that for cross-sectional images imply consistent sampling, such as ImageOrientationPatient, PixelSpacing and SliceThickness, and in addition AcquisitionContextSequence and BurnedInAnnotation.
Note that Series identification, specifically SeriesInstanceUID is NOT a distinguishing attribute; i.e.,
FrameSet
s may span Series.
