DICOM @ OFFIS

Hello, I've got a problem where the man file for storescu tells me that I can enable tls with the "+tls" option. However, when I try using this option on the command line I get the message: "error: Unknown option +tls". Furthermore, when I check the command line help, the tls opt...

Thanks to all for their posts. I've tweaked the source of the storescp utility to meet my needs of clean termination.

Hello, I have a question. I'm using the storescp utility in a windows environment. I am running it like so: storescp -od . -aet TEST 104 Using it this way, it runs indefinitely. To stop the utility from running, I use CTRL + C. What I'd like to know is if stopping the utility this can cause problems...

Hi Per,

I'm attempting to implement the solution you came up with, but I'm having trouble finding where would be the best place to put the code that would check to see if the program should exit. Can you tell me where you put such code?

Thanks a lot

Thank you for your posts, they have been very helpful.

This may seem a silly question, but I'm wondering if whether or not a modality sending to the storescp utility would recognize that a study was not received in it's entirety if Per's idea was used.

Thanks

Hello, I'm looking for a way to stop storescp when it is not busy receiving/processing dicoms. Here's the situation, let's say I want to run storescp indefinetly, but obviously need to reboot the machine it runs on from time to time. I'm thinking that I need to be able to stop the storescp utility g...

Hello, I'm looking at replacing a purchased piece of software that sends and receives dicom images with dicomtk. However, I am fairly green as far as dicom knowledge goes and am not confident that I can successfully reproduce the needed functionality of the purchased software. So, to begin, do you h...

Hi, I'm using the dcmtk utility dcmmkdir. However, I get the error: "Error: file not part 10 format (no metainfo-header): 00000001" when trying to create a dicomdir. I've done a dump on the dicom and cannot see any data in the metainfo-header. Does anyone have any ideas how I can create a ...

I was able to bypass the littleendianexplicit error by creating the dicomdir using the ignore encoding parameter. However, I ran into an error when I try to view the file using one viewer - that gives an error saying the file is not valid. I then tried viewing the image using another viewer using th...

Also,

The dicom is compressed using jpeg lossless compression - so should there still be an issue?

Jorg,

Thanks very much for the speedy reply. I have actually been researching this issue since I posted and have another question.

Does your answer mean that to transfer dicoms from one computer to another I have to use movescu and set some sort of littleendianexplicit attribute?

Thanks

Does anyone know why I would be receiving the error message: LittleEndianExplicit expected when I try to create a dicomdir?

Thanks

Thanks very much for the replies. I've recently learned that having more info for each image entry in the dicomdir than is put there by default with the dcmmkdir is not needed for our purposes. I am still curious however as to how a dicomdir that someone else created was able to contain dicom info t...

So, there's no way to add records to a dicomdir at the command prompt - or tell dcmmkdir to get certain dicom attributes?
