question about
what exactly does the TOOLS>IMPORT>Import studies from a DICOM Part 10 formatted local directory feature do ? will it physically move the files from the specified directory to the Default Short-Term Archive Directory or simply leave the files where they are and store a pointer to them in the db ?
It will have PacsOne Server import all the raw Dicom Part-10 formatted images recursively under the specified Import Source Directory. No copying or moving of the raw image files is involved, as PacsOne Server will merely parse the raw Dicom images stored under the Import Source Directory into the database, i.e., it will leave the files where they are and store a pointer to them in the database.
