New DICOM Import function

  • Hello there,
    With Version 0.9.2.1 I changed the way of importing dicom files into the local db. The 'Import' button is now used for bmp/jpg to dicom import. If you want to import dicom files to view them with k-pacs, just click on "filesystem" in the query panel and select the directory of the files (e.g. root directory of your CD). After clicking on accept K-PACS will scan the folder and all subfolders for valid dicom files and sort them into series and studies. It will show you the found studies in the main grid. If the checkbox "Check every file for dicom compliancy" is checked, K-pacs will test if the file is completely compliant to the dicom 3 part 10 standard. This is recommended if you want to send these files into an archive. If K-PACS does not show any found study you can try to uncheck the checkbox and search again. Some dicom files fail the test (for instance hipax created images) but nevertheless could be shown and transferred.
    Note that the filter options are working for filesearch as well!! So, click "clear fields" before importing from filesystem, if you want to see all valid studies in the folder.
