Hi,

I am using DCM4CHEE archive 5 version,
When a study is pushed to PACS. The DICOM file has the patient age but it is not saving in the database patient table.

Can you please let me know how to enable it?

Thanks

Date of Birth should work.     I'm not sure about age.

In database schema  there is no "patient age" column. Need to alter table and insert the new column. Should pass  the patient age tag,  attributes to database.

Why do you need to alter the patient table? As previously mentioned, Patient Age is part of Patient Study module attributes which is present in default configuration (Attribute Filter - Study). That implies Patient Age attribute with its value can be seen when you expand the study attributes. Patient table already contains a column for pat_birth_date
