Dicom Router implementation using dcm4chee kit

I am very new to DICOM. I want to develop a DICOM router. For example I have PACS server1 and PACS server2. I want to send some specific study from server1 to sever2.

How can I do that using dcm4chee kit?

Solution

  • You can use C-Move Dicom SOP Class. You can use dcm4che-tool-movescu from dcm4che3 or older dcm4che-tool-dcmmv from dcm4che2.

    Both utilities allows you to run a C-Move as SCU. With this operation you can send any study from one PACS to another AET.

    Keep in mind that C-Move only specify the AET of receiving system, thus, source PACS must known this AET as well as host and port data.
