2 Detailed Release Notes Optical Density Measurement Tool for CT images 2

3 757 - EDIT DICOM Object and IOCM A new DICOM Object Editor Screen which allows user to: Add tags Add sequence Add sequence item Add/Edit/Delete tag within sequence Duplicate sequence item Remove tags Remove sequence item Change value of tags To start editing - select "Show header" and click "Edit" button: A new instance is generated from the original and updated according to the DICOM standard: 1. New series created 2. Referenced instance sequence (0008,114A) with reference to the original series/instance inserted into the new instance 3

4 New instance will be opened for editing: To add tag - use "Search and add tag" options. When user click "Add" button - tag will be inserted on main level or inside selected sequence User can copy entire sequence, delete it or add tag into it. To select one of the options - right-click on sequence row to open contest menu. 4

5 To change tag value - double-click on its row To delete tag - right-click on its row and select "Delete tag" On closing study user will be suggested with several option concerning new instance: If user decides to save new instance - Rejection Notes KOS Document will be created as new series. 5

6 Flip and Rotate tools Flip Vertically Flip Horizontally Rotate 90 Clockwise Rotate 90 Counterclockwise 6

7 Option to anonymize DICOM files on Export (DICOMDIR creation) If "Copy to a new folder" selected and "Anonymize" checked - studies in the destination folder will be anonymized (de-identificated). Also user can select an option to remove all private tags (DICOM attributes that are not defined in standard, but are custom data specific for organization) 6 - Option to start DICOMIZER from command line with parameters When launched with specified command line parameters DICOMIZER will start directly in the Q/R screen and send a query according to the parameters. Query parameters appear in the query screen when results are retrieved from PACS and could be editable for additional query. Also there is command line parameter allowing to get "snapshot" of the current image from the DICOMIZER viewer. Command Line options -q or -Q Start DICOMIZER in the query screen and send a Query. -o or -O Set the output path for Send as references. This option overrides the EXAP shared folder name. 7

8 Query parameters 0 or more query parameters can follow the -Q option. Every parameter should be of the form: tagname= value Double quotes are optional for cases where the value contains whitespace characters (space). The allowed tags are all the ones that are displayed in the Q/R screen including the advanced search. The tag names should be according to RZDCX s DICOM_TAG_ENUM. Option Tag Name Tag Comments and examples patientname Patient Name (0010,0010) patientid Patient ID (0010,0020) PatientBirthDate Patient Birth Date (0010,0030) Exact date in DICOM format (YYYYMMDD) Example: PatientSex Patient Sex (0010,0040) Valid Values: M/F/O or Male/Female/Other (both accepted). AccessionNumber Accession Number (0008,0050) StudyDate Study Date (0008,0020) Exact date in DICOM format (YYYYMMDD) including ranges. When value is a date range double quotes must be used to prevent parsing it as command line option. Examples: (exact date) (to date) (from date) (date range) ModalitiesInStudy Modalities in Study (0008,0061) Example: DICOMIZER.EXE -q patientid= will start the directly to the Q/R string and start a query: 8

9 Send as reference Button When the -O command line parameter is used, the Send as reference button shall be displayed instead of the three buttons on the left (open file, open folder and history) : 9

10 Clicking the "Send as reference" button will save the currently displayed and selected image using the current VOI LUT to the path provided as the value of the option. For example if the DICOMIZER started with the command: DICOMIZER.EXE -O c:\taken Send as references then the files will be saved in c:\taken Send as references. The Send as references will be saved in PNG format in the full resolution of the DICOM image (i.e. according to the Rows and Columns tags (0028,0100) and (0028,0101). Next to the PNG file, the original DICOM file will be saved: The Send as reference save files will have the following filename pattern: <destination-folder>\sop Instance UID.png <destination-folder>\sop Instance UID.dcm <destination-folder> is the value from the -O command line parameter. If -O is not set, application uses the EXAP shared folder from configuration. If the provided path is not empty, and there is already a file with that name, the file shall be replaced without asking the user. 10

11 23 - Split Screen option was added to a Viewer User can select one of the following options to split viewer display area: one part, two parts horizontally, two parts vertically, four parts: 11

12 12

13 Different study might be opened in each part. To do it user needs to select required part by clicking on its area (selected part is marked by red border) and open study using usual ways ("Open files"/"open folder"/"history" buttons). Another option is drag-drop file/folder from Windows explorer onto required part which will be selected automatically. Click on each part automatically loads its study into series/images thumbnails panels: 13

14 14

15 25 - Angle Measurement Tool 32 - Option to add some comment to each converted DICOM file / frame When on Acquisition screen image is captured / selected from the disk - we add default comment to each of them ("Image taken by..." or "Attached image"): 15

16 User can change default comment by editing them in the grid or in pop-up window which can be opened by double-click on comment row in the image thumbnail: NOTE: Default comments will not be inserted into converted files! 16

17 If user selects to build one multi-framed DICOM file - comments will be inserted into "PerFrame" sequence: 17

18 DICOM Viewer "First View" Performance While application scans the input dataset (folder, list of file, DICOMDIR) it displays the first image as soon as possible and then update the viewer on adding each image to the view Allow to select log level for DICOM operation as "Send Query" etc DICOM Viewer "Show Header" Performance 18

19 Table view was replaced by hierarchical tree view so that sequences might be opened/closed by user. This greatly decreased time of loading tags from DICOM file to the viewer. Also new option of displaying private tags was added. By default all private tags are displayed with "?" name, but user now has an option to use dicom.dic file (located in the installation folder) to define name of any private tag. Format of the dicom.dic tag line is: # Tag VR Name VM Version (0027,0000) UL SamplePrivateGrpLength 1 RZDCX All columns MUST be separated by "Tab". Dicom.dic file from the installation package contains few lines as example Show total number of the imported files in "Import files to Local Archive" 19

20 Presentation States displaying improvements When user clicks a GSPS (modality PR) series, the PR series thumbnail is highlighted, each graphic object containing in GSPS module is displayed as separate image thumbnail in the bottom panel and first of them is displayed in the main area on the image it is referencing. Click on each image thumbnail loads corresponding graphic object into main area. When user clicks a non-pr series, only that series (without PR's) is displayed. When the PR series is selected and user chooses "Show header" - the tags of the PR is displayed ("Edit" for PR files is not allowed) 20

21 When there is no Study Instance UID in the MWL, DICOMIZER should create one just like when it does when not working from MWL If study instance UID is empty in MWL entry - DICOMIZER converts DICOM files with empty StudyInstanceUID too (because it gets UID from MWL row). And of course such file can not be sent to HRZ DICOM Server (send fails because study_instance_uid column in DICOM_FILES table is "NOT NULL" and files storing structure requires StudyInstanceUID) DICOMIZER 5.2 crash on some versions of Windows 7 which don't support Compact DB If OS doesn't support Compact DB - Local Archive and History in the Viewer are disabled 21

22 Crash in Modality Worklist Screen when "Automatic MPPS" is selected in settings but sending MPPS is not allowed by MWL server If MWL server doesn't support MPPS commands but "Automatic MPPS" is selected in the settings screen - message "Failed to send MPPS command!!!" will be displayed on MWL screen opening and other MPPS commands (completed/discontinued) will not be sent to the server Report is created twice if clicking back from convert screen If you create a study with DICOMIZER, fill report text and click back from convert screen and then next again the report is duplicated and you get 2 DICOM files with same report text. Images btw are not duplicated. 22
