Each DICOM file in a study is encoded with one of the DICOM encoding scheme that represents its data. The DICOM standard defines following schemes to name some of them.
• Little-endian Implicit VR |
• Big-Endian Explicit VR |
• Little-endian Explicit VR |
• Run-Length Encoding (RLE) |
• Baseline JPEG |
• Extended JPEG |
• Lossless JPEG |
• Lossy JPEG |
Whenever you send or receive a study it could be transmitted in one of the above formats across the network. Although all of these schemes are valid, not all PACS systems support for all the transfer syntaxes above.
