Retirement of Radiation Dose Module from Modality Performed Procedure Step

RDSR, not MPPS, is used in the IHE Radiation Exposure Monitoring (REM) profile and is the preferred mechanism for submission to registries.

The Radiation Dose Structured Report (RDSR) mechanism has long since replaced MPPS as the mechanism for interchange of radiation dose information for all X-Ray modalities, such as CT, XA/XRF and projection radiography, including mammography.

This supplement retires the Radiation Dose Module from the Modality Performed Procedure Step SOP Class.
