PacsOne Directory Name

Post by Nasser » Mon Feb 28, 2005 5:16 pm

Hi,

I'm a new user of PacsOne;
I have currently 2 AE's, CR from Konika and US from GE; I want to store images send by these to AE's in th PacsOne and after that workstations, currently EFilm, can get images from PacsOne in order to manipulate them by specialists.

Is it possible and what kind of AE's configuration I need to use in the PacsOne and in EFilm?

thank you in advance.

All you need to do is to click on the Application Entity link and add the two AEs to the Application Entity table.

It's up to you do decide whether you want to assign a separate Archive Directory for each of the two AEs so that incoming images from the two AEs will be store in separate directories, or you can assign the same Archive Directory for both so that incoming images from both AEs will be stored in the same directory.

For eFilm, you will also need to add it to the Application Entity table. You don't have to create a Archive Directory for it unless you are going to send images from eFilm to PacsOne. If so, you can choose to store them in a separate Archive Directory or share an existing Archive Directory of another AE.

Please refer to the PacsOne Server Premium Edition User's Guide for more details:

Do you think it’s possible to download images in EFilm dicom directory to PacsOne archive directory?

another question,
the download&installed the file Premium.exe, it did the installation and called the directory "PacsOne" not "Premium" , I didnt modify any thing on the default parameters. is it normal, OR it must give the installation directory the name "Premium"?

PacsOne can import any Dicom-formatted images/directories into its database, so as long as eFilm saves its images in Dicom Part 10 standard format (I think it does but you can check with eFilm for sure) you can import images stored by eFilm into PacsOne Server.

By default, the Windows version of PacsOne Server will be installed under:

C:\Program Files\PacsOne\

You can change this installation directory to any folder you want to, when you run the PacsOne Server installation program you downloaded (one of the steps of the installation program is to ask you whether you want to install to this default folder, or you can click on the browse button to select a different installation folder)

There could be two possible reasons for the red stop sign to be displayed instead of the image thumbnails:

1. The ImageMagick PHP extension (imagick) was not loaded:

You can check the output of the test page:

http://localhost/pacsone/Hello.php

If you see the imagick PHP extension from the output of the above test page, then ImageMagick was loaded fine and it must be the other reason below.

2. The image was encoded using a Dicom transfer syntax that ImageMagick does not currently support:

If this is the case, can you send one sample of such images in a zip file to mailto:pacsone@pacsone.net and we'll see exactly which transfer syntax is not supported. You can anonymize the patient information if you're concerned about privacy.

I noticed, in the hello.php, that I have the following version:
ImageMagick version 5.5.6
PHP imagick version 0.9.5

is it possible that my imagick probleme come's from PHP imagick version 0.9.5?and how can I upgrade it?

regards.

These versions are correct if you're running Windows version of PacsOne Server.

You can try a quick test to find out why ImageMagick could not display your images:

1. Copy a sample image to "C:/Temp/" and rename it to "Test.dcm".

2. After logging in to PacsOne web user interface, access the following URL from your browser:

http://localhost/pacsone/image2blob.php

The output of the above test page should display errors from ImageMagick if it cannot display it.

Hi,
sorry for the delay.
the result of the test is :

failed to read C:/Temp/test.dcm
Reason: UnexpectedEndOfFile
Description: C:/Temp/test.dcm

I send you the hello.php page by mail .

thank you in advance.

The error suggests that you may have a corrupted image file.

You can either dump the Dicom tags of this file "C:/Temp/Test.dcm" by using any 3rd-party Dicom tool, or send it in a zip file to mailto:pacsone@pacsone.net.

If you can view the image from the test page, that means ImageMagick is working fine and it's the image format that's causing the problem. You'd need to re-transmit all the existing images in order to store them in the new format, then you should be able to view them from the browser.
