# DICOM Transfer Syntaxes Reference

This document provides a comprehensive reference for DICOM transfer syntaxes and compression formats. Transfer syntaxes define how DICOM data is encoded, including byte ordering, compression method, and other encoding rules.

## Overview

A Transfer Syntax UID specifies:
1. **Byte ordering**: Little Endian or Big Endian
2. **Value Representation (VR)**: Implicit or Explicit
3. **Compression**: None, or specific compression algorithm

## Uncompressed Transfer Syntaxes

### Implicit VR Little Endian (1.2.840.10008.1.2)
- **Default** transfer syntax
- Value Re
