Test PACS System

DCMTK provides a utility called dcmqrdb (formerly imagectn). It is fairly straightforward to configure.

Command line


dcmqrscp --config config.txt

Configuration file (config.txt), see dcmqrcnf.txt for more details. Edit the HostTable and the AETable. Connections to "practical" in the example below will be placed in the directory /path/to/archive/Archive. "aware" is the only AE that is allowed to put data in this PACS system.

 
 # Global section
 NetworkType	=	"tcp"
 NetworkTCPPort	=	4006
 MaxPDUSize	=	8192
 MaxAssociations	=	20
 Display		=	"yes"
 
 # Allowed hosts
 # Make sure there are no spaces between the ()'s!!!!
 HostTable BEGIN
 aware = (aware,aware,4006)
 HostTable END
 
 # Vender table ( Ignored )
 VendorTable BEGIN
 VendorTable END
 
 # Application Entry Table
 # ApplicationTitle StorageArea Access Quota Peers
 AETable BEGIN
 practical /path/to/archive/Archive RW (500,1G) ANY
 AETable END
