    Remarks

    DICOM allows multiple VOI and presentation Lookup Tables (LUTs) in images, and the user may select whichever they require. These properties provide that choice, and the value 0 may be used to disable a particular type of LUT.

    Only one Modality LUT is allowed, so the only meaningful values for ModalityLUT are 0 and 1, but the other two may range from 0 to the number of such LUTs in the image. Value beyond the available range are treated as 0.

    For Modality LUT, the default value is all 1, indicating that the Lookup Table, if present, should be used.

    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
