DVT:: System.OutOfMemoryException when trying to validate .dcm file

Hi,

I downloaded the file and got exactly the same result on my (windows xp) system. I also tried to open your DICOM file with DICOMscope 3.5.1 (from office) and got a "Load failed" message.

As both DVTk and DICOMscope (which are completely independent DICOM implementations) and MicroDICOM (as you mentioned) cannot open this file, probably some problem(s) are present on byte level. These are of course the most difficult problems to solve.

Helping you further with this problem is outside the possibilities of DVTk.

Maybe another user on this forum wants to give it a try.

If you want to get dedicated support to solve this problem (even if this needs to be checked on byte level), also check http://www.dvtk.org/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=Services&cmenu=home.

Regards,
Marco

Storage SCP Emulator:: Chinese Characterset GB 18030
Hi Karsten,

a few years ago, we received a software contribution from Agfa to be able to display strings that are encoded with a subset of character sets that are defined by the DICOM standard. This has been build into e.g. DVT and the Storage SCP Emulator.

The current set of character sets for which this is possible can be found in the <install directory>\Storage SCP Emulator\CharacterSets. GB 18030 is however not part of the supported character sets.

After implementing this display funcionality we tried multipe times to get a description from the software developer from Agfa (we created the original code) how we could extend the set of supported character sets. My guess is he was to busy with other things as we did not receive this information...

So in this case, I don't think we can help you with this.

If somehow you would like to give it a try to extend the character sets, please let us know, so we can pinpoint you to the code involved.

Regards,
Marco

Re: How to read DICOMDIR [by marcokemper]

Using the library:: How to read DICOMDIR
LS,

all DICOMDIR attributes can now be accessed using the DVTk high level interface. The DVTk DICOM Editor is based on the DVTK high level interface and is able to show all attributes, including the ones that make up the DICOMDIR records.

You will be able to access all the values of each attribute. I would however not recommend changing any of the attributes that make up the DICOMDIR records unless you know exactly what you are doing: these records contain offset attributes that you would need to change also when adding/removing attributes or changing the value of an attribute to a value with a different length.

Marco

DICOM Viewer and Validator:: Image Array
LS,

the "DVTk high level interface" attribute values part is string based to make it easy to use. Because of this, getting the array of bytes from an OB, OF or OW attribute has not been implemented as this was not the primary goal of the high level interface.

If you need such functionality, please create a ticket on this web site.

Marco

DVT:: Question about ValueType (0040,A040)

Hi Thomas,

I'm assuming you are validating a structured report.

As the validation results show "Additional Attribute Module", I'm assuming you do not have the latest definition files installed.

Can you check if you have the latest definition files (version 1.1.10) installed?

Marco

Modality Emulator:: Emulator won't Echo

LS,

to solve the "no command field attribute value" problem, copy the following attached definition file file (in the zip file) in the executable directory of the modality emulator. This is a known problem and should be solved in the next release of the modality emulator.

Marco

DVT:: Problem with PRINT-SCP

Hi Kubilay,

with DVT 2.6.6 and definition files 1.1.10, I tried to reproduce the problem but was not able to do so.

I sent the following N-SET-RQ to the printer SCP emulator and was able to see the validation results with no warnings:

Received:
N-SET-RQ
(0x00000000,"0x00000070") # Group 0000 Length
(0x00000003,"1.2.840.10008.5.1.1.4") # Requested SOP Class UID
(0x00000100,"0x0120") # Command Field
(0x00000110,"0x0012") # Message ID
(0x00000800,"0x0202") # Data Set Type
(0x00001001,"1.2.826.0.1.3680043.2.1545.1.1320765530.0.0") # Requested SOP Instance UID

Are you already using the latest DVT and definition files versions?
If not, can you try to upgrade this and tell me if this solved the problem?

Regards,
Marco
