Import converter strips VOI LUT from header

  • I ran into an interesting issue. I am on dicomserver v1416. I can successfully route MG images using a combination of import and export converters. The following is what I had used successfully for a year. ;


    # Configuration of rules to modify, log or reject incoming DICOM slices
    ImportConverters = 2
    ImportConverter0 = newuids; set 0020,000e to "%V0008,0018"
    ImportConverter1 = set 0008,103e to "%V0045,101b"


    ExportConverters = 1
    ExportConverter0 = forward to isite[/i]


    But, I wanted to take advantage of 1416's ability to forward on an importconverter, allowing me to destroy the images, so I changed it thus:


    # Configuration of rules to modify, log or reject incoming DICOM slices
    ImportConverters = 3
    ImportConverter0 = newuids; set 0020,000e to "%V0008,0018"
    ImportConverter1 = set 0008,103e to "%V0045,101b"
    ImportConverter2 = forward to isite; destroy


    It all tested fine, until I got a call from the site notifying me that the VOI LUT wasn't accessible. I checked the header (0028 3010) on the PACS and it was not on any of the images sent with the above converter.


    Thoughts?

  • Hi,


    this issue should definitely be resolved (the original importconverter code did not copy sequences, it must now). Can you check what goes wrong with the header. You did try the latest update from the forum (1.4.16i), yes?
