Images arriving out of sequence

  • It seems as though our AGFA CR systems are sending images out of sequence to our Conquest archive.
    The problem is that the CR's are sending over slow WAN links for teleradiology and there is no way for the doctors to tell how many images should be in the study. The radiographers now annotate on the 1st image in a series, but the images are arriving out of sequence which is upsetting the doctors who have to constantly open and close a study to see if the first image has arrived.


    Is there any way to have a study available (or visible in the db) only once the whole study is received by conquest? OR is there a way to force the images to be received in order?
    (Agfa says that their systems can not be modified to send images in the correct order.)


    Is there a RecieveAssocian level setting somewhere?

  • Hi,


    the db is updated instantly for each recieved image. So no, there is no way to avchieve tat with one server. You could though recieve in a buffer (conquest) dicom server, and forward delayed to the main server, e.g., after 10 minutes of inactivity.
