Devices & Services Audit
Use the following narrative to complete the form on the
previous page.
REMOTE HOSTS:
Remote hosts are DICOM devices to
which the system can push an image. Remote hosts can
be review workstations, archival devices, or PACS
systems.Please indicate the type of remote host. Now
indicate the manufacturer and model name or number.
Compatibility can vary with software versions, please
indicate the version of device firmware/software the
device will be running.
List the device's
IP address.
The answers to the next several items can be found in the
device's DCS (DICOM Conformance Statement).
Please indicate the highest level of
DICOM
conformance
for this device. If the device is not DICOM
compliant, please indicate so and move on to the next
device.
If the device does have some level of DICOM
conformance please return a copy of the DICOM
Conformance Statement with this completed form.
DICOM supports a number of
image types
. Please
indicate if this device supports the DX and/or the CR
image types.
The
host name
is the name that will appear on the
screen and users will use to indicate this device. Please
list the host name.
The next four sections address the four services that
remote host devices may offer. Each of the services will
have its own AE (application entity) title and port number.
The AE title is the name given to a service or application
provided by a DICOM device. The
port number is a logical designation within the device.
These pieces of information are available in the device's
DCS.
Being a
remote host server
allows the system to
push images to other devices. If you want the device to
accept this service, check yes and provide the AE title
and port number.
Being a
query/retrieve
service class provider allows
the system to query this device and retrieve images
stored there. If you want this device to provide these
services to the system check yes and fill in the
requested items.
The
query/retrieve
by study or patient controls how
much the user is able to retrieve at one time. For study,
the user may retrieve studies, series, images. For
patient, the user may retrieve all of the study attributes
plus a patient's entire image collection.
A
storage commitment
provider confirms that images
sent by the system to an archival system were
received and stored. Note - This option is only
available when the system is sending DX type images.
If your device supports both DX image types and
storage commitment check yes and provide the AE
title, the port number and the network (IP) address.
The
MPPS server
receives the messages sent by the
system. These messages consist of information such
as when the exam started and closed, how many
images were acquired, dose information, etc. This
information is then updated on the Hospital Scheduling
system. If the site has an MPPS server, provide the AE
Title, IP address and port number.
