MPPS2ORM data missing accession number

[Barry Bulen]

I am new to dcm4chee.  We are looking at using it with the MPPS2ORM service. 

 

The accession number is missing although it is in the DICOM studies.  We used K-PACS to send the studies in testing.  The tag "0008,0050" in K-PACS has the correct accession number and it shows up in dcm4che's web interface.  But, it isn't in the ORM message or the xml log from the MPPS2ORM service.  All of the other fields from the study show up correctly.

 

Here is the revelent line from the xml log file.

<attr tag="00080050" vr="SH" pos="410" name="Accession Number" vm="0" len="0"/>

 

Any clues to why the accession number doesn't show up?

 

Thanks.

By default the mapping is controlled using an mpps2orm.xsl file - located in the server/default//conf/dcm4chee-hl7 folder

That is what I started to change, but I noticed the default file already had the accession number mapped to the ORC.2 and ORC.3 fields.  But, the HL7 messages didn't have anything in those fields.  So, I checked that the images in K-PACS had the accession number in the 0008,0050 DICOM field.  It was, so I turned on logging on the MPPS2ORM service.  The XML log file didn't have a value for the accession number.  That is were I am confused.

 

Thanks.

I think I have found the root of my problem.  The following link(http://www.dcm4che.org/jira/browse/DCMEE-47) mentions that the accession number isn't included by MPPS Emulator in certain conditions.

 

Now my question is, would these conditions still be true for studies set from a modality without using a worklist and the tech was just hand entering the accession number?  If so, could I use the cstorerq.xsl file to add the missing fields so that I can get the accession number for MPPS2ORM?

I was able to get it working by adding the missing fields(00400009 and 00401001) using the cstorerg.xsl file.

Don't forget that a DICOM Image Object is different to a MPPS Object e.g.  In an image object the Accession Number is in the 0008,0050 DICOM field,  in MPPS the Accession Number is part of an item of sequence 0040,0270.

As best  I remember, if you are not using MWL then yes you'll need an alternative method to populate the Accession Number and the cstorerq.xsl should be workable.
