No SOPInstanceUID for Series?

#1 Post by martinrame »

I'm doing some C-Find commands against a GE PACS (Centricity) and found this funny results.

When I query for series I get this:

Code: Select all

findscu -v --study -k 0008,0052=SERIES -k 0020,000D=1.2.840.113619.2.452.3.1678428672.149.1564403906.381 -k 0020,000E -k 0008,0060 --aetitle SCPAET --call GEPACS 10.100.0.41 4100

As you can see, aparently the series is empty. Is this correct?, shouldn't the PACS ignore that series if it doesn't contain any object?.

Re: No SOPInstanceUID for Series?

#2 Post by J. Riesmeier »

When I try to get the SOPInstanceUIDs of that series I get this:
The dataset dump shows the request (see caption "Request Identifiers:" in the log output) and not the response, i.e. there is no match for your request. I only mention this to make sure that we are talking about the same aspect of the findscu output.

Apart from that, I agree that a Series should never be empty. By the way, this seems to be the only Series in this Study that contains Structured Reporting documents (Modality "SR").
