DICOM @ OFFIS

I noticed that the response of some PACS to a C-STORE request is to return an empty status detail. Small point, but a bit irritating to have this happening. I would consider filtering this bit of fluff in the Dcmnet apps, notably storescu, something like: /* dump status detail information if there i...

In order to test storage commitment, I was thinking of adding this SOP class to storescp? Right at the moment I don't see a better alternative. Unfortunately, from what I have seen none of the popular PACS support this... I have tried Conquest, and a couple of others, and they all seem to balk at a ...

See my other replay to your compiler question. (I guess both of these posts should be in the installation section, not the general. But you should be able to search the forum and get all the posts about borland c++) Anyway, from your LONG list of linker errors, it looks like you are not in fact sett...

Did you already apply the patches as indicated in this thread (see my earlier post in which I gave all the patches in detail.

Double check that you have these all in place, and that you did follow all the instructions.

One approach to easing the pain of initially getting something working is to use child processes, ie run the .EXE from your application, supply the necessary command line parameters, and collect the results back from the child process. In this way, you can (at least at first) avoid the problems of t...

Thanks for the comments. Yes, I can see that this would not be trivial. However, building a query file is also not trivial. It could be done by having enough templates around to cover the commonly encountered queries and then programatically choosing the appropriate template and filling in the appro...

From the "findscu" manual: [quote] It is not possible to replace or insert attributes within sequences using the -k option. [/quote] Would anyone need this capability? If anyone would like to use this feature, I am considering implementing it for an application I am working on. Is there a ...

Thanks, I must have been misunderstanding what I was referring to in the IHE tech framework... The specific document I was looking at in this case was: IHE Technical Framework vol II Transactions, rev 6.0, May 18, 2005 and within this, 4.5 Query Modality Worklist then in section 4.5.4.1.2.1 Examples...

To be specific, I would propose this change in wlfsim.cxx: [code] // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- OFBool WlmFileSystemInteractionManager::PatientIdsMatch( const char *datasetValue, const char *searchMaskValue ) // Date : July 12, 2002 // Author : Thoma...

I have a question about using wildcards in patient id query of modality worklist. It seems that I can query patient name, accession number, requested procedure ID, using wildcards and retrieve matching records, eg: patient name = D* will return all patients starting with the letter D -but- the same ...

Thomas: (or anyone else interested in worklist) As we had earlier discussed, I am in the process of implementing the MPPS SCU package. This has gone reasonably well and I have a working executable, which has allowed me to do some basic testing for my particular application, which briefly is: query a...

Well, I now have another question, Im afraid, also today with lifetime of passed objects. The problem I am dealing with now is I want to copy some elements from one data set into another. I am trying to do something like the following: [code] //merge the request dataset and the selected response dat...

Ok, I think I understand,...

The response matching dataset is passed back to the DIMSE find provider,
(dimfind.cxx) which processes the response, then deletes the dataset.

As part of testing mpps scu, I want to use the existing wlmscpfs code. In order to do this I need to make some changes to the wldsfs.cxx (data source), in particular the way matching data sets are returned in StartFindRequest...NextFindResponse. I am concerned here about the lifetime of the returned...

Thomas:
Thanks for the comments and clarification about possible implementations of mpps-scu

I will keep you posted about progress on any of these tools, and thanks for offering to answer any further questions, which, as I start getting deeper into this, I am sure will arise!
