Referenced Study Sequence in Modality Worklist

[Maik Schlotter]

Hello experts,

I have a question dealing MWL and its modules.
In PS 3.3 appendix C the modules are described. That is nothing
new :-).

But at two points I began to wonder.

In the Patient Relationship Module attributes there is such a
Referenced Study Sequence which is also in the Visit Relationship
Module attribute list.

Due to modality worklist attributes there exists a unsolved circular
dependency.
The Requested Procedure Module defines the tag 0x00081110 with return
key of type 2 and 0x00081120 of type 3.
But the Visit Realtionship Module defines the tag 0x00081110 as type 3
and 0x00081120 as type 2.

Is this fact wilful?

Maybe this is a main bug in the standard.

Further both modules are referenced in the attributelist for the
worklist! I do not have such a deep understanding in DICOM buth this
fact distrubes me.

Hope somebody has an idea,

Maik

Well, as result of my older posts, I have looked deeper into the
standard and found the solution.

All things cleared by now.

Thanks,
Maik
