RE: Siemens DICOM hdr: FoV and Row/Column values
Vincent,

I suspect the differences are due to Siemens storing the data in Montage format instead of a single image per DICOM file.  If this is true the Montage format would be in a 6x6 grid (594/94 = 6 for rows and columns).  The difference in the FOV is most likely due to a rounding error when they do the calculation and store the data.  1440/240 = 6.   At least that is what i think is going on. 

I hope this helps,

Bob
