(0018,1704) Collimator Right Vertical Edge
1C
Required if Collimator Shape (0018,1700) is RECTANGULAR. Location of the right edge of the rectangular collimator with respect to pixels in the image given as column. See C.8.7.3.1.1.
(0018,1706) Collimator Upper Horizontal Edge
1C
Required if Collimator Shape (0018,1700) is RECTANGULAR. Location of the upper edge of the rectangular collimator with respect to pixels in the image given as row. See C.8.7.3.1.1.
(0018,1708) Collimator Lower Horizontal Edge
1C
Required if Collimator Shape (0018,1700) is RECTANGULAR. Location of the lower edge of the rectangular collimator with respect to pixels in the image given as row. See C.8.7.3.1.1.
(0018,1710) Center of Circular Collimator
1C
Required if Collimator Shape (0018,1700) is CIRCULAR. Location of the center of the circular collimator with respect to pixels in the image given as row and column. See C.8.7.3.1.1.
(0018,1712) Radius of Circular Collimator
1C
Required if Collimator Shape (0018,1700) is CIRCULAR. Radius of the circular collimator with respect to pixels in the image given as a number of pixels along the row direction. See C.8.7.3.1.1.
(0018,1720) Vertices of the Polygonal Collimator
1C
Required if Collimator Shape (0018,1700) is POLYGONAL. Multiple Values where the first set of two values are: row of the origin vertex; column of the origin vertex. Two or more pairs of values follow and are the row and column coordinates of the other vertices of the polygon collimator. Polygon collimators are implicitly closed from the last vertex to the origin vertex and all edges shall be non-intersecting except at the vertices.
