Hi, I have been looking at some structured report uploads and while trying to make sense of them I noticed something.
It appears that data type "UT" does not display in the "Show header" function available from within ConquestDICOMserver (and thru the web viewer as well).
Here's a fragment of an example
--
>>0040,a010 8 CS RelationshipType "CONTAINS"
>>0040,a040 10 CS ValueType "CONTAINER "
>>0040,a043 0 SQ ConceptNameCodeSeque Sequence Item
>>>0008,0100 6 SH CodeValue "125008"
>>>0008,0102 4 SH CodingSchemeDesignat "DCM "
>>>0008,0104 14 LO CodeMeaning "Fetus Summary "
>>0040,a050 8 CS ContinuityOfContent "SEPARATE"
>>0040,a730 0 SQ ContentSequence Sequence Item
>>>0040,a010 16 CS RelationshipType "HAS OBS CONTEXT "
>>>0040,a040 4 CS ValueType "TEXT"
>>>0040,a043 0 SQ ConceptNameCodeSeque Sequence Item
>>>>0008,0100 8 SH CodeValue "11951-1 "
>>>>0008,0102 2 SH CodingSchemeDesignat "LN"
>>>>0008,0104 8 LO CodeMeaning "Fetus ID"
>>>0040,a160 8 UT TextValue
---
>>>0040,a010 16 CS RelationshipType "HAS OBS CONTEXT "
etc..
See the "0040,a160 8 UT TextValue" line that is blank .. it actually contains "FETUS 1" .. I've verified this by looking at the raw DICOM file in both programmers notepad and also using an SR viewer. There are a few other UT tags in the file I'm looking at and none of them show. I'm wondering if this is by design or an omission? I have been using dgate.exe via the web interface to get the header file to look for particular tags in a simple way without having to parse DICOM streams ... that works well but I just started extending the concept with SR and noticed this!
EDIT: And I using server 1.5.0b
Cheers
