Adding new dicom tags to worklist

    Can someone give me instructions, or direct me to instructions, on how to add dicom tags to the worklist? I have read multiple posts about it but nothing with concise instructions. I want to add Referring Physician (0008,0090).

    Just add a line to dicom.sql somewhere in the middle of the worklist table:


    { 0x0008, 0x0090, "ReferringPhysician", 64, SQL_C_CHAR, DT_STR, "---" },


    And clear (reinit) the worklist database. At the --- entry the HL7 location can be set if any.

    Will this syntax work the same with other tags, eg 0008,1030 for study description?
    Also the 0008,0090 has a subtag of 0008,0100 for an ID tag. Is there some way we can add the subtag also?
    Thanks!

    Hi Pete,


    you can add any tag this way, including subtags. However, the database is FLAT, so while subtags work they have to have an unique group/element pair. Sequences are generated by conquest in the query result as they came in in the original query.
