dcmodify -if

Server running Ubuntu 16.04.6 with dcmodify v3.6.1 2015-09-24 (as per Linux repos for this version of Ubuntu) I've successfully created a DCM from a PDF using pdf2dcm +st /var/lib/dicom/e5/b4/e5b4906c-e5c4-4441-afc0-09f37123e2b7 ./test.dcm and noted that all tags appear to be correct with a dcmdump ...

Re: Compiling DCMTK for Ubuntu

Herr Riesmeier, To answer your questions in turn: I'd love to use the official Ubuntu packages, but they've always been a few versions behind. At the moment Ubuntu 18 only has v3.6.2 available (although Ubuntu 19 does have a package for 3.6.4) but there's a tendency to remain on the LTS versions of ...

Compiling DCMTK for Ubuntu

Hi all, I'm not a programmer however I'm a firm believer in giving back to worthwhile projects like DCMTK and so I'm seriously considering setting up a public PPA for DCMTK for Ubuntu users. I'm not sure how many users out there use Ubuntu as there certainly seems to be a lot of Windows users, but I...

findscu returns more fields than expected

I have a feeling that this actually isn't a DCMTK issue, but rather a vendors DICOM implementation, but wanted to run it by to make sure. When I use findscu against a PACS (Philips iSite in this particular case), and I specify particular tags using "-k" options in my query, I notice when I...

Re: Multipage PDF: SOPInstanceUIDs for each page? (pdf2dcm)

If I may ask one further follow up question : does pdf2dcm always produce an ELE file (1.2.840.10008.1.2.1) or perhaps it will unless using the --study-from option, in which case it uses the TransferSyntax of the source DICOM file?

Re: Multipage PDF: SOPInstanceUIDs for each page? (pdf2dcm)

You have to create a new SOP Instance UID for each and every DICOM object (which might a single- or multi-page PDF encapsulated into a DICOM dataset). Understood - a follow up question therefore: for a 4 page PDF, does pdf2dcm create one DICOM object for the entire PDF (therefore a single SOPInstan...

Multipage PDF: SOPInstanceUIDs for each page? (pdf2dcm)

Hi, I'm playing with the PDF2DCM utility as I want to add a PDF to an existing study and have some general questions about multiple page PDFs and their corresponding SOPInstanceUIDs: I have a StudyInstanceUID of 1.2.3.4.5.6 containing three series, each series having 10 instances. I have a four page...

Re: Requesting multiple studies using C-MOVE

Thank you Herr Riesmeier, sir ... was hoping that there was a simple answer to this, but I couldn't find the delimiter ('\') anywhere online. One crate of beer coming your way! 8)

Requesting multiple studies using C-MOVE

Now, I have to be honest and state that I've not tested this against the newly released 3.6.3, but using 3.6.2, does movescu only support one C-MOVE request per call? I've been using movescu -S -aec PACSAET -aet MYAET -aem MYAET -to 5 -ta 5 -td 15 -k "0008,0052=STUDY" -k "0020,000d=1....

Re: Upgrading 3.6.1 (via aptitude) to 3.6.2

Michael, Have been thinking about embedding the dictionary into the binaries and I'm not too sure that would be wise, all in all, certainly from the OFFIS point of view. Any changes in the dictionary would mean recompiling all binaries for that one reason, which may seem a little over the top. Havin...

Re: Upgrading 3.6.1 (via aptitude) to 3.6.2

Michael, As always, please accept all of our thanks for the speed and resolution into getting answers. It's a huge reason why we use the toolkit. I will put your findings together in my document and get it somewhere where it can be shared. More of that later this week. I actually checked both the st...

Re: Upgrading 3.6.1 (via aptitude) to 3.6.2

Michael, Many thanks for the explaining the inner workings ... makes sense now why I was running into those errors ... and of course, now the "-R" switch with storescu makes much more sense to me. Additionally, adding that switch does exactly what it says it does, and I'm no longer running...

Re: Upgrading 3.6.1 (via aptitude) to 3.6.2

Michael, Good to hear from you again - it's been a while! Yes, when I export the DCMDICTPATH which points to the (newer) dicom.dic, everything works as expected (and when running in debug mode, states the dicom.dic being used is the one that I exported). Whilst this is a workaround, I would much pre...
