    Property Value

    The Series Description
    Remarks

    Provides human readable descriptions of the Study returned by a query, or relating to an image. They correspond to attribute (0008, 103E).

    The usefulness is limited by the fact that not all equipment provides descriptions in its SOP instances, and even if it does, they may not be available through Query/Retrieve. For instance the RSNA CTN (up to and including version 2.8) supports the study description, but fails to index and provide the series description.
    Requirements

    Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
