Table highlighting the different imaging studies for the patient in the framing use case. For each imaging study, the following DICOM data elements are populated: modality, study description, institutional department type code sequence, anatomic region sequence, and primary anatomic structure sequence. For each element, current potential DICOM values are populated

 ^aThe study description represents is a text element. LOINC-RSNA Radiology playbook terms are used to populate the study description element for radiologic studies [33]

^bNo LOINC-RADLEX playbook exists for this type of imaging study. A sample procedure description is thus included

^cThe specialty Institutional Department Type Code Sequence is presented. The data element has been left blank for patient-acquired photographs [38]

^dNo Institutional Department Type Code Sequence exists for the specialty. A sample specialty name is used

^eA sample anatomic structure has been selected to fill the Primary Anatomic Structure Sequence. This element is left blank when large field of view imaging is performed
