about storescu and recursing directories...

#1 Post by JustSomeGuy »

I've got a directory hierarchy that I need to recurse through and send to the PACS.

I'm a bit confused as to the command line syntax needed to do this.

./storeescu -aet MYAET -aec DESTAET -v +r 192.168.1.1 104 DIRECTORY

the files should match *.dcm

I think I need these two options but the documentation is a little sparse and I'm not clear on their usage.

+sd --scan-directories
scan directories for input files (dcmfile-in)

+sp --scan-pattern [p]attern: string (only with --scan-directories)
pattern for filename matching (wildcards)

Do I simply add +sd +sp *.dcm to the command line?

I've googled for examples but don't find any...

Correct, but I would add quotation marks around "*.dcm" (in order to avoid that the shell expands the wildcard).

Thanks.. I got brave and did what I thought was right.
I didn't put the quotes around the wild card.. hope i'm not in trouble.. It's been running for an hour.

I have a question about log levels

There are a lot of warnings about
I: Transfer Syntax: LittleEndianExplicit --> LittleEndianExplicit
W: DcmItem: Group Length with VR other than UL found, corrected

DCMDICTPATH="/usr/local/bin/dcmtk-3.6.0-mac-i686-dynamic/share/dcmtk/dicom.dic

I wish I could set the log level such that I get my I: logs but NOT the W: logs....
-ll Info ?

Of course, there is a reason for these warnings (the file is obviously encoded with wrong group length elements). As I already wrote to you in another posting, use an appropriate logger.cfg for a fine-grained configuration of the logger output ...
