Reason/Issue The MR Product can generate image headers with non-unique series identifiers, which when exported to some PACS systems, results in the series being associated with the incorrect study on the PACS. The intended study will not have the correct series listed and an unintended study will have it listed instead. In all cases, patient identifying annotation remains correct.
