How may I know the number of series and the number of images acquired during a procedure when a digital fluoroscopy system has been used?

It is not easy to know it. Sometimes in the DICOM header, a tag with identified number is archived. Another tag indicates the number of images acquired in every series. The only retrospective information that could be obtained is the number of series ‘non archived’ before the one existing in the PACS, e.g. if the archived series is the number 3, two other series were obtained before and not archived. It is not possible to know if other ulterior series were obtained.
