Error creating DicomDir

[Daanen]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a dicomdir file from several Dicom image files.
With one dataset, it's ok but with another one, it fails with the following error:
Storage Media Application Profile Violated.

I searched the forum and find a post about that so I plug a Console and get this message: "Error: LittleEndianExplicit expected: IMAGES\IM_0001"

What should I do/look at to solve this ?

Any help is welcome

Thx

Vince

Well,

i'm a bit confused . I posted before trying all the profiles ..... sorry

So the 2 datasets are ok (dicomdir file creation) with

Code: Select all

OFCondition status = dicomdir.createNewDicomDir(DicomDirInterface::AP_GeneralPurposeMIME);

Anyway, could someone explain me why ...
and also , is there a risk that this profile will not be the good one for MR, CT and US images ?

Thanks

Hi,

each Application Profile only permits special combinations of SOP classes (CT, MR, etc) and Transfer Syntaxes (Little Endian Explicit, JPEG Lossless, etc).

The best idea is maybe using the STD-GEN-CD profile (default in DICOM interface) which permits all SOP classes but requires the files to be in Little Endian Explicit. STD-GEN-CD is pretty common for radiology.

For angio x-rays there are other profiles common, as well as for Ultrasound e. g. Just look into the standard part 10-12 for what is permitted.

Regards,
Michael

the data elements of DICOMDIR must use Explicit VR little Endian Transfer Syntax
