DICOM @ OFFIS

I would be grateful if someone could please shed some light on this issue for me please. The following movescu succeed but no images are stored in c:\test folder - similar command works for other dicom nodes: movescu -v -S -k 0008,0052=STUDY -aet CARDIAC1 -aec NNUH_QR_SCP 10.145.92.230 105 -k 0020,0...

Thank you for your help. This was educational for me.

So did i misunderstand the quote below from Dicom documentation?

implementations should not depend on any assumed structure of UIDs and should not attempt to parse UIDs to extract the semantics of some of its components

Sorry to reopen this again. I changed the program to avoid .00. but still the same problem
dcmdump +P SOPInstanceUID test.dcm
(0008,0018) UI [1.2.826.0.1.3680043.2.1012.0.542.06.09.2022.10.50.16] # 52, 1 SOPInstanceUID

Sorry, ignore my last message. Nothing to do with pydicom, I am a lousy programmer!

I am puzzled. My applcation only changes Study and Series Instance UID. I think the SOPInstanceUId is changed by Pydicom package which is supposed to be the bread and butter of medical image datasets!

Thank you! Mystery solved!

dcmdump +P SOPInstanceUID test.dcm

Thanks for looking into this.

The Dicom documentation(https://dicom.nema.org/dicom/2013/output/chtml/part05/chapter_B.html) states that: Because of the flexibility allowed by the DICOM Standard in creating organizationally derived UIDs, implementations should not depend on any assumed structure of UIDs and should not attempt to ...

Forgot to thank you for your help - I learned a lot.

Sorry, i am not that tech savvy. Wish I was!

Output does not change if i include 0008,0060=MR in the series-level query, no matter which modality i select.

By the way, in your SERIES-level query you also need to add the Unique Key for this level, which is the Series Instance UID (0020,000E). It appears it works without Series Instance UID. See line D: (0008,0060) CS [MR] # 2, 1 Modality in the output below: All I need is to confirm is that the search ...

Thank you for your advice. At the end I had to issue another findscu at the series level to confirm the study's modality: findscu -v -d -S -k QueryRetrieveLevel=SERIES -k 0020,000d="1.2.840.113845.11.1000000001951524609.20210406091830.2551313" -k 0008,0060 -aet MYSCP -aec DICOMSCP 10.145.9...

Forgive my ignorance on not having a grip on Dicom information models. I tried -S, -P and -O switches to get the results I wanted but thanks to your reply I now understand that Modality attribute is associated with the Series level. My aim was to use movescu to move a study using known values for Pa...
