Report Type: this determines the type of structured report. Select Enhanced report or
Comprehensive report according to the report type your PACS system requires.
Data Configuration: this determines whether a report with All results or with only
Summary Results will be sent. All results include all the individual measurement
results of each measurement and its summary results in the worksheet, while
summary results come from all the individual measurement results by the method of
average, maximum, minimum or last which is decided by the user in the worksheet.
Sequence Delimiter: this determines the method to indicate the end of a DICOM
sequence. Undefined and Explicit are available.
Server Settings:
Server list: The main interaction in this section is a list of configured servers. It starts off
as an empty list, and grows as servers are added. Most sites will only use one server, but if
the system is moved between locations then multiple servers may be entered. Clicking in any
field in this list will select that server. Depending on the exact level of software a second
click may be needed to edit that field. The fields are:
Default: A check mark on the left side indicates which server is the default for
Auto-Transfer.
Name: The name of the server that appears in the drop-down list of the patient
database
AE Title, IP Address, Port, Max PDU: These are the settings of the destination
DICOM server; it’s how the system finds the DICOM server on your network. The
AE title and IP Address are unique to your network; contact your network IT
manager for these settings. The most common setting of Remote Port for DICOM
servers is 104, although your server may be different.
Testing the server: There are two tests to ensure that the server information is entered
correctly. Click on any field for a given server to make that server selected, then:
Ping: A successful Ping means that the system can communicate with the server at a
low-level; basically that the two computers ‘see’ each other. As a security measure,
some servers on the Internet may be configured to not respond to a Ping even if the
connection is successful.
Verify: A successful Verify means that the system can communicate with the server
at a DICOM level; basically that the DICOM on both computers understand each
other. A successful Verify will typically mean that your DICOM configuration is
correct.
Other controls:
Add: Adds another line in the list of servers.
Delete: Deletes the selected server.
Default: Makes the selected server the default for Auto-transfer.

Comment Source: Modality Worklist can fill the ultrasound comments section from the
server. Depending on
Patient Comments: Obtains comments from DICOM tag (0x0010,0x4000);
Scheduled Procedure Description: Obtains comments from DICOM tag
(0x0040,0x0007)
Comments on Schedule Procedure: Obtains comments from DICOM tag
(0x0040,0x0400)
Worklist Server: Selects the server to query for the worklist. Options include any server
configured in Server Settings (see previous section).
Date Range: The range of dates for the worklist query. Note, the option of “Yesterday and
Tomorrow” includes today’s exams.
Map SPSD: Checking this item, the Study Description on Patient information page will
show study description and as well as SPSD(Scheduled Procedure Steps Description)
obtained from Worklist server. Otherwise only shows the study description
4.1.3. Network Store
This screen configures the system to connect to an FTP server on the local network. This allows
the system to store .avi and .bmp files to a local server without using DICOM. To use this, a PC
or server needs to be configured as an FTP server on the local network. The mechanism to do
this depends on the operating system used. Please contact your local IT support for assistance.
Once configured, studies can be sent to the FTP server from the Exam Database shown in Review.
Studies are sent to the configured folder, where each study appears in a separate folder with the
name of the patient and the study date.

measure, some servers on the Internet may be configured to not respond to a Ping
even if the connection is successful.
Connect: A successful Connect means that the system can communicate with the
FTP server, and FTP transfers will work. If this fails but Ping works it could mean:
oThe destination computer is not correctly configured as an FTP server.
oThe password on the server has changed. Use Edit to re-enter the password.
oThe Shared Directory does not exist. Use Edit to confirm the directory.
Add: Adds another line in the list of servers. This automatically invokes Edit.
