Hi,

I am trying to retrieve attributes from DICOM headers from our local PACS.
It works well with movescu but I would like to try out the "WithoutBulkData" Information Model to avoid downloading pixel data, which I do not need.

Here is what I tried:

>> .\movescu -c called_aet_itle@ip:port --dest my_ae_title-L IMAGE -M WithoutBulkData -m Modality=CT -m StudyDate=some_date -m InstanceNumber=1 -m PatientID=some_patient_id
movescu: WithoutBulkData is not a supported Information Model name
Try `movescu --help' for more information. 
 
But this Information Model is specified in the help:

 -M <name>                       specifies Information Model.
                                          Supported names: PatientRoot,
                                          StudyRoot, PatientStudyOnly,
                                          CompositeInstanceRoot,
                                          WithoutBulkData, HangingProtocol
                                          or ColorPalette. If no
                                          Information Model is specified,
                                          StudyRoot will be used.

 
Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

I had a look into "dcm4che/the MoveSCU.java" code and found this:

private static enum InformationModel {

    PatientRoot(UID.PatientRootQueryRetrieveInformationModelMOVE, "STUDY"),
    StudyRoot(UID.StudyRootQueryRetrieveInformationModelMOVE, "STUDY"),
    PatientStudyOnly(UID.PatientStudyOnlyQueryRetrieveInformationModelMOVERetired, "STUDY"),
    CompositeInstanceRoot(UID.CompositeInstanceRootRetrieveMOVE, "IMAGE"),
    HangingProtocol(UID.HangingProtocolInformationModelMOVE, null),
    ColorPalette(UID.ColorPaletteQueryRetrieveInformationModelMOVE, null);

I do not see the "WithoutBulkData" Information Model. Is this the reason why I cannot use it?

Many thanks in advance,

Balazs
