[Loris-dev] Different StudyInstanceUIDs

Hi Alfredo,

I am afraid what I said earlier was not 100% correct: each
SerieInstanceUID/echo time combo has to be unique. So yeah, you could have
two DICOM files associated with different modalities that have identical
SeriesInstanceUIDs (in that case though, it is expected that the echo times
will be different). I am guessing the studies you are referring to in your
email fit that requirement, right?

Apologies for the confusion.


Best,
Nicolas
