ITC DICOMpiler
Software
(Version 4.8.31.1)
In order to facilitate the transport of DICOM objects from treatment
planning systems and scanners which support network (DIMSE)
communication services, the ITC has developed a Windows PC application
which performs the following functions:
- Acts as a DICOM receiver (Storage Service Class Provider)
- No alteration is made to the encoding of the data (Endian orientation)
- Allows the user to select among received DICOM Series
- Replaces the values in some tags and creates additional tags:
- Patient Name and Patient ID is replaced with a string constructed from
Protocol Sponsor, Protocol ID, Case Number, and (optionally) Patient Initials
- Clinical_Trial_Sponsor_Name is replaced with the Protocol sponcer
- Clinical_Trial_Protocol_ID is replaced with Protocol ID
- Clinical_Trial_Subject_ID is replaced with Case Number
- Patients Birth Date, Patients Sex, Clinical_Trial_Protocol_Name, Clinical_Trial_Site_ID,
Clinical_Trial_Site_Name, Clinical_Trial_Time_Point_ID, Clinical_Trial_Coordinating_Center_Name
are all added with a value of "NULL"
- PatientsBirthTime, OtherPatientIDs, OtherPatientNames, EthnicGroup,
PatientComments, Clinical_Trial_Subject_Reading_ID, Clinical_Trial_Time_Point_Description
are deleted entirely
- Formats objects as a "Part-10" fileset with an empty DICOMDIR file. These
files are written in the same transfer syntax that they were received. (It
should be noted that these created files are deleted when a new set of files
is generated). Once a fileset has been created on a user's PC, the files may
be written to CD-R media (using readily available, commercial software). When
writing CDs, be aware that the DICOM standard designates that files encoded
on CDs be written in Little Endian Explicit. Files can also be sent to the
ITC using FTP.
The ITC DICOMpiler application has been tested under Windows 98/2000/NT/XP.
These pages show how to obtain, install and run the DICOMpiler. The latest revision
is 4.8.31.1
