7.2 Export to DICOM device
DICOMBurner acts as a DICOM Store SCU allowing you to send DICOM files to a pre-selected
DICOM device. Note that the sending procedure preserves the original DICOM files remain on the local
storage. When you select the
“Export to DICOM device”
functionality DICOMBurner shows a GUI wizard
guiding you through a hierarchical (Study – Series – Instance) selection of the DICOM files to be sent.
7.2.1 Study-level search
The study-level step of the wizard procedure allows you to select the studies containing the DICOM
files you want to send to a DICOM device. This step includes both the filtering options related to patient and
study levels. The list of studies can be filtered by specifying some filtering options (or search criteria): in
particular, the patient identification filters, the acceptable range of birth dates, the patient sex and the
acceptable range of study dates. By pressing the “
Filter
” button you obtain the list of studies satisfying the
set conditions. Then you can select all studies you are interested in by using the mouse and multiple file
selection technique. The “
Deselect All/Select All
” button can simplify this task. The number of studies,
studies size, number of series and number of instances are provided for the selected studies. Finally, you
can proceed to the next step by pressing the “
Next>
” button. As a shortcut you can start the sending
procedure of the selected studies without reaching the last wizard step by pressing the “
Send Studies
”
button.
