Hi,

It seems like filtering by StudyUpdateTime is not supported, is that correct? Is there any other way to query for study/series metadata and get only study/series updated since a given time? 

Basically my actual goal is keep up to date a separate database with metadata information on the series I have in DCM4CHE. I'm looking for a way to do this that wouldn't require a full scrape of DCM4CHE  every time I want to update but if I use StudyReceiveDateTime to only scrape new studies I will miss any series that have recently arrived in a previously existing study. A similar problem can occur with a series that received instances later because I'm keeping track of the number of series related instances field.

If anyone has any idea about a smooth way to accomplish this goal, please let me know.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi,

that filter ( updatedTime ) is supported in the dcm4chee-arc-light UI in Monitoring menu: in Queue, Export, Retrieve and Compare tab. From there you can extract than information that you need to query the specific study that you need in the Navigation page.

Thanks, good to know.

Andreiver, for my own needs I ended up using IAN messages to keep a metadata database up to date. I configured dcm4chee to send IAN messages to an IANSCP when any new study object is received, then I wrote a script which reads those messages as they are received and polls dcm4chee for additional metadata. Works well for our use case.
