Weasis Dicomizer

[Arash Shahzamani]

Hi, I have an image on the file system. How can I dicomize it and display it in weasis explorer?

Thanks.

[Nicolas Roduit]

If the goal is to dicomize images, you can download weasis-portable.zip and configure it to launch the dicomizer:

1. Rename weasis-portable-2.6.0/weasis/conf/ext-dicomizer.properties into ext-config.properties
   
2. Edit the renamed file and adapt to your need, see also https://dcm4che.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/WEA/pages/3670033/Weasis+Preferences
3. Launch weasis (I need to write a small user guide)

• On the left panel open an image folder
  
• Import selected images 
  
• Edit images optionally
  
• Finally publish into a DICOM archive
  

 

To associate a patient to the current images, there are different ways:

1. without configuration you can edit any field (red ones are mandatory)
   
2. use a DICOM worklist, connect by editing the ext-dicomizer.properties and modify preferences starting by weasis.acquire.wkl
3. create xml file and give it to weasis by acquire:patient command

It is also possible to configure the web distribution.

Respected Mr.  Nicolas Roduit 

Everything is working fine. Now i need to understand how we can modify setting of DICOM worklist  i am unable to find setting.

for example: How can i set to fetch studies from MWL for today or any specific Accession number or Patient ID

[Nicolas Roduit]

You can either modify the properties from the configuration file or inject parameters from a web context like described here. e.g.
$weasis:config pro="felix.extended.config.properties file:conf/ext-dicomizer.properties" pro="gosh.port 17181" pro="weasis.acquire.wkl.host localhost" pro="weasis.acquire.wkl.aet DCM4CHEE" pro="weasis.acquire.wkl.port 11112" pro="weasis.acquire.wkl.station.aet WEASIS-MWL"

Thanks for your reply.

I have already configured like you told but my question was how can we change the fetching settings for example how to set date for today?

[Nicolas Roduit]

Currently, we use the command "acquire:patient" directly from our EMR by getting the contextual patient information in XML file. The MWL method is limited and it would be necessary to add options to filter by date, station name...

If it is possible for you to submit modifications with a Pull Request, I invite you to do so because unfortunately I can't handle all requests.

Thanks for Reply.

While trying to fetch data through XML by using following command

viewer-win32.exe $acquire:patient -x "test.xml"

I am facing following error. Can you provide me the sample contextual patient information XML file !

The option -x pass the content of XML otherwise use -u for an URL (for a file => file:///C:/document/test.xml). See options.

Here is an example of xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<tags>

<PatientID>97032168</PatientID>

<PatientName>TEST^TEST</PatientName>
