7 SE Suite Access and Security Strategy
This section describes the user management and security functions in the SE Suite
software solution.
7.1 Authentication Management
SE Suite User Accounts, User Profiles (or Roles) and User Operations are managed in
the SE User Management Tool.
Figure 6: SE User Management Tool
7.2 User Policy
When talking about security, we need to make the distinction between:

 Authentication: Who are you?
On SE Suite, the users with their passwords and policies.
 Authorization: What are you allowed to do?
The authorization model used in SE Suite is RBAC (Role Based Access Control)
where Role is also known as Profile.


Figure 7 reflects the multi-level user right assignment on SE:
Figure 7: Multi level user rights in SE Suite
7.2.1 Overview of pre-installed User Profiles (also known as Roles)
Following user profiles or roles are available by default in the SE software solution:
ADMINISTRATOR: User account that can be used by the hospital IT personnel or

service to login to the local system for administrative,
configuration and troubleshooting tasks.
CLASSIC USER: Standard user account with clinical use rights (Image display
and reporting, customization, modification saving ...).
GUEST: User account that can be used for demo or temporary access by
service or clinical user with highly restricted access and DEMO
text as overlay on images (Read only database).


The dependencies of user profiles and access rights or 'operations' are as follows:
 The access rights to the different SE functions are bundled into 'operations'.
These operations cannot be changed.
 The operations are bundled into 'User Profiles’ (also known as Roles). The SE
system provides a set of predefined profiles (i.e. Administrator, Classic User and
Guest) that should fulfill normal requirements. These profiles cannot be configured
(default profiles are locked) but can be derived. These Derived Profiles can be
customized.
See SE Suite 2.0 Technical Documentation: Chapter 5, Configuration SE Suite
 A Profile defines which operations can be executed. Users can be ‘enrolled’ to one
profile only. A Profile can be assigned to several user accounts.
Figure 8: Dependencies in SE Suite User Accounts Management


7.3 Technical Approach
This section describes the technical approach of the SE Suite user account
management.
7.3.1 General Architecture
Figure 9 shows the general architecture of the SE Suite user account management.
Figure 9: Client/Server architecture


NOTE:
 In a Standalone configuration the authentication database, SE application, Profile
and Configuration folders are on the same machine (On the same disk but not the
same partition).
 In a Client/Server configuration the authentication database and the Profile folder
are on the server. This Profile folder must be shared with SE clients with read and
write access (See SE Suite 2.0 Technical Documentation Chapter 4, Installation).
7.3.2 Configuration Files
This section describes the configuration files, their purpose and behavior.
 Configuration files roles

o Description_NameOfTheComponent.xml
This file defines the predefined default User Profiles (Administrator, Classic
User and Guest) that cannot be modified.
o Custom.xml
This file defines the customizable User Profiles derived from a predefined one.
o Profile.xml
This file defines the User Profile of a given User Account.
o AccessPolicy.ini
Defines the security rules to follow concerning login.
 File behavior in Standalone Configuration

o Description_SIGMACOM.xml
This file is saved in D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE Client\Settings\Profile folder as
soon as SE Standalone application is launched for the first time.
o Custom.xml
This file is saved in D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE Client\Settings\Profile as soon as
a derived profile is created in SE User Management Tool.
o Profile.xml
This file is saved in D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE Client\Settings\Profile \#1 (where 1
is user subfolder) as soon as this user account is created in SE User
Management Tool.
o AccessPolicy.ini


 File behavior in Client/Server Configuration

o Description_SIGMACOM.xml
This file is created in D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE Server\Settings\Profile folder as
soon as SE Server application is launched for the first time. Its size is around
3 KB and contains teleradiology options only. This file is automatically updated
with full options (file size around 36 KB) as soon as Client is installed and
launched for the first time (user account connection is not needed).
NOTE:
 As soon as the SE Server is restarted, the Description.xml
file is overloaded one more time (with Teleradiology options
only). However, this file will be updated again when a client
will be launched.
 If it is required to create/customize a user account or a
derived profile, make sure that a client has been started at
least once since last server restart.
o Custom.xml
This file is saved in D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE Server\Settings\Profile as soon as
a derived profile is created in SE User Management Tool.
NOTE: This file is not as dynamic as description.xml file. It is not impacted

during server restart.
o Profile.xml
This file is saved in D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE Server\Settings\Profile \#1 (where
1 is user subfolder) as soon as this user account is created in SE User
Management Tool.
o AccessPolicy.ini
NOTE:
File profile.xml is not as dynamic as description.xml file. It is not
impacted during server restart.


7.3.3 User Preferences Files
This section describes the user preferences files, what they are, where they are located
and when they are updated.
What are user preferences files: User preferences are defined in configuration files
(e.g. xml files) such as ImagePreferences.xml.
Where are they located: User preferences files are saved in the user subfolder (which
name is a number) of the Profile:
- In client/server configuration: Saved on server in D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE
Server\Settings\Profile shared folder.
- In standalone configuration: Saved in D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE
Client\Settings\Profile folder.
Figure 10 User Preferences files path
When are they updated: These files are created/updated as soon as user logs out.


7.4 Functional Approach
This section describes the functional approach of the SE Suite user account
management.
7.4.1 User Login Application Behavior
The application behavior concerning the user login looks as follows:

 Login dialog box: user must fill in login and password then click ok button.
 Login and password verification: information comparison on Authentication
database on the server (or standalone)
 If information is correct and user account different than previously connected user
account, user account profile is loaded.
 User may have to change his password if needed (Password policy).
 User can be blocked when attempting to login unsuccessfully if needed
(Password policy).
7.4.2 User Logout Application Behavior
The application behavior concerning the user logout looks as follows:

 Logout dialog box: user click on Quit SE in the login/logout dialog box
 User’s preferences files are saved in Profile file on the server (or Standalone)
7.5 Administrating Microsoft Windows Accounts for SE Server/Client

Configuration
Sections 7.1 to 7.4 describe the importance of folders/files sharing and read/write
permissions for given user accounts/groups in SE Server/Client configuration.
However, the way these Microsoft Windows user accounts must be created and
permission granted is not obvious in Server/Client configuration and mainly depends on
the availability of a Network Domain on the clinical site where SE Suite will be installed.


7.5.1 Configuration when no Domain is available
The fundamental things to know here is the fact that Windows user accounts on the SE
Client need their counterpart on the SE Server to get connection possible between the
client and the server. For instance, when a limited MS Windows account is created on
the client (e.g. SE User), the same MS Windows user account (with the same name,
profile and permissions) must be created on the server side.
Then, on the server operating system, it is needed to provide explicitly this user (or
User Group if this account is affected to a given User Group) the full access rights to
the shared Profile folder (and therefore its content) in the security tab.
See Service manual Chapter 4, Installation of SE Suite 2.0.
Example:
Figure 11: Client/Server Configuration: Counterpart Accounts
NOTE:
Providing full control rights for Everyone in the Sharing/Permissions for the Profile
folder is not sufficient.
The same strategy must be applied on the Images shared folders.


7.5.2 Configuration when Domain is available
When a Network Domain is available on the clinical site, the user accounts registration
and permissions granting on specific folders is much easier. There is no need to create
counterpart accounts on the server. The administrator just needs to grant permissions
to the relevant user accounts on the domain (or user groups if user accounts are
assigned to a user group).
See Service Manual Chapter 4, Installation.
NOTE:
Providing full control rights for Everyone in the Sharing/Permissions for the Profile
folder is sufficient to get a system working properly, however security level is not high.
It is the site administrator responsibility to fine tune the security strategy of his network
domain to increase security.
The same strategy must be applied on the Images shared folders.
Example:

1 Safety Directions for SE Suite 2.0
1.1 Safety Directions for Installation and Installation Planning of SE Suite 2.0
WARNING:
SE software must only be installed by authorized and trained service personnel.
Any hardware configuration running SE software should be selected, configured and
setup according to the installation instructions, hardware and software requirements
provided by Agfa Healthcare.
WARNING:
Images and data can be lost due to power or hardware failure.
Connect the equipment to an un-interruptible power supply (UPS) or an institutional
standby generator. At the same time, risks of data loss need to be contained by
implementation of suitable backup and data redundancy solutions.
WARNING:
Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) is strongly recommended in teleradiology
environment.
A lot of clinical sites perform power cuts to check back-up generators (e.g. each week)
which could lead to system failure (Server shut down). This results in delay in
teleradiology workflow if no UPS is available.


1.2 Safety Directions for Configuration of SE Suite 2.0
1.2.1 Advanced Configurations
WARNING:
Incorrect settings can corrupt the application and endanger patient safety.
Don’t change settings when declared as 'keep defaults' in the service documentation.
WARNING:
By default ‘AE Title check’ option is disabled. Enabling ‘AE Title check’ option can
disrupt DICOM communication if modalities AE titles are not correctly set or modified
after configuration; SE application won’t accept communication anymore if modality
AE title is checked and not recognized.
CAUTION:
Violation of patient privacy possible.
Since the patient privacy information is human readible, it must be treated as
confidential information and protected from unauthorized access.
WARNING:
Existing priors possibly may not be displayed.
“Time relative” value of prior images MUST be greater than the time interval between
two screening exposures (according to screening rules of the country, in general 2
years) to make sure that existing priors will be available and displayed.
WARNING:
Wrong interpretation of DICOM information in Hanging Protocols possible.
When using the “DICOM information” option in Hanging Protocols, the displayed
information is not updated when selecting another image.
WARNING:
Clinical workflow, diagnosis or patient safety may be jeopardized.
SE traces events in .log files (based on .txt files) and in standard syslog repositories in
order to trace performed actions (ATNA needs) or to notify the SE administrator when
system/network failures occur in the application. Fix these as soon as possible to avoid
to jeopardize clinical workflow, diagnosis or patient safety.


WARNING:
Storage Commitment SCU is not available from SE.
Successful transfer and storage of images is not guaranteed if image transfer is done
via SE only.
1.2.2 SE User Management Tool (Add or edit Custom Profile)
WARNING:
User may not be able to diagnose a kind of series/images or perform relevant
and specific actions.
Keep in mind, that disabling options in a custom profile will lock or unlock functionalities
and tools access.
1.2.3 Screen Settings
WARNING:
Wrong screen settings could lead to wrong measurement results or suboptimal
display and jeopardize patient safety.
 Be careful in changing screen settings and configuration (e.g. in multi monitor
display configuration, make sure screen resolution are equivalent). These screen
settings are used to compute image rendering.
 For “True size” zoom, screen settings must be correctly filled-in. True Size is
based on the resolution and screen physical size of the display area. It does not
take into account other hardware settings which could lead to inaccurate
measurement results.
WARNING:
Misinterpretation of images by missing calibration of displays jeopardizes
patient safety.
To guarantee the complete image quality chain and to be allowed to diagnose with
SE Standalone software, it is mandatory to connect monitor(s) DICOM calibrated and
to control regularly the quality of the display according the recommendation of your
monitor vendor.


WARNING:
When using the SE software for diagnostic purposes, the display hardware should be
properly selected, setup and calibrated. Users performing mammography examinations
must always use grayscale monitors approved for mammography with a minimum of
5 megapixel resolution, or any other hardware in accordance with the local legal
requirements.
WARNING:
Remote control application (such as PC Anywhere, VNC, Network streaming...) won't
work if the monitor set as the "main monitor" in Windows settings has a resolution
higher than 1600 x 1200 pixels.
When a system is using a multi-monitor configuration using regular monitor
(15/17/19 inches) and diagnosis monitors (3MP/5MP), the main monitor MUST NOT be
a 3MP/5MP but a regular one (1024 x 768 pixels / 1280 x 1024 pixels).
The application provides functionality in 'configuration tool' to set the display area on
3MP/5MP monitors that are independent from the "main monitor" settings in Windows
display property.
1.2.4 Database
WARNING:
The Risk of mixing up patients can lead to misdiagnosis.
Don’t enable the functionality “Merge series for same study”.
WARNING:
Make sure that during HIS/RIS connection, the uniqueness of patient ID is carefully
checked.
1.2.5 Windowing
WARNING:
User may miss important image information.
Don’t change windowing settings. If the multiplication factor is too high relative to the bit
depth of the image, the application will apply excessive window leveling and user may
miss important information.


1.2.6 DICOM Store Options
WARNING:
Loss of information within the image can cause misdiagnosis.
Enabling option “Hardcoded in image pixels” is in the responsibility of the user.
When ROI and/or any annotation are hard coded in the pixels, some relevant
information within the image might get lost because the original pixel information is
replaced by the ROI/annotation.
1.2.7 DICOM Print Options
WARNING:
Misdiagnosis based on improper printouts.
By default, the SE Standalone allows printing on DICOM Printers.
Only administrator profile is able to set-up printers in SE.
It is the responsibility of the Customer to ensure that the
configuration / calibration and the Quality tests have been made properly when
registering a new printer.
Advised settings for mammography:
Illumination = 4000, Reflected Ambient Light = 1
Once the quality control has successfully passed, these parameters must not be
modified unless one the component of the imaging chain has changed (e.g. light box
luminance).
WARNING:
When printing Mammography images, it is important to note that you may only print
one image per film, the print must be true size, and all images within a study must be
printed.


1.2.8 XML Configuration Files
WARNING:
Wrong XML file editing can corrupt the application and endanger patient safety.
 SE software XML files can only be modified by authorized and trained service
personnel.
 Any SE software XML file must be modified according to the service/support
instructions provided by Agfa Healthcare.
WARNING:
Misinterpretation jeopardizes patient safety.
Refer to DICOM Standard to know the DICOM tag units.
For each DICOM tag having a digital value, TAG description and Unit (if existing) must
be inserted before the value itself to avoid units’ misinterpretation (e.g. Entrance Dose
150 mGY).
WARNING:
Loss of information at display can cause misdiagnosis.
Be careful, if too much information is put in ‘ImageInfo.xml’ and if its size exceeds 1/3
of window height and width, part of information may be not displayed especially if
option “Display DICOM information on the side opposite the member” is enabled.


1.2.9 Smartbackup for SE Suite 2.0
WARNING:
It is recommended to perform a backup of existing configuration and databases before
any SE applications migration or update task.
WARNING:
Recovering wrong backup files can lead to problems with the software, database
crashes and loss of configurations.
In order to backup more than one configuration from different machines, it is mandatory
to specify a different backup path for each machine. In fact, only the last backup file is
conserved in the backup path and all older ones are removed.
1.2.10 Server only: Service Management Dialog Box Setup
WARNING:
Images can get lost because of automatic cleaning enabled.
When choosing auto cleaning 'thresholds', be aware that image local storage area
might be shared with other applications requiring disk space. Cleanup being based on
available space, it may clean more images than expected because same disk is used
by other programs. AGFA strongly advises the service engineer to dedicate a
hard drive partition to application image storage.
Before activating the automatic cleaning of oldest studies, system administrator and
services must carefully set the thresholds that trigger the cleaning of studies, according
to the medical legal rules of his/her country. The system must not start cleaning the
studies that are within the legal long term storage range.


1.3 France only: Safety Directions for Teleradiology Installation
WARNING:
Because some emergency workflow can be critical, it is recommended to use
broadband Internet connection with Service Level Agreement (SLA) or to have
ISDN Backup to improve the uptime of the Internet access and make sure a study and
the corresponding context can be sent “anytime”.
WARNING:
Image storage path should never be modified in database settings since storage
location contains images. Otherwise, images previously stored will not be reachable
anymore even if listed in the application database window.
WARNING:
In the case of “Local user management”, the responsibility of having consistent folders
is not centralized anymore. If client sites don’t pay attention to user management, this
could lead to having folders created by unknown users.
This decision must be approved by teleradiology network policies.
In the case of “Local user management”, users unknown from server will not benefit of
additional user notification such as email or SMS.
WARNING:
When dual server mode is configured in teleradiology, it is important to synchronize the
both servers regarding time not to disrupt exchanges history and workflow.
WARNING:
Network settings are the basis of a Teleradiology configuration.
Therefore, the service engineer must particularly pay attention to these settings and
carefully test the Teleradiology workflow.
WARNING:
In Teleradiology configuration, the ‘clinical context form’ can be customized by clinical
site (a new DLL is created). The service engineer has to check that this DLL is present
in the Program folder. These DLL are named Context#X.dll (e.g. Context1.dll,
Context2.dll etc.).
WARNING:
User must carefully check the availability of the sound card or beeper activated on the
system, this is mandatory for a Teleradiology workstation. The volume must be set high
enough to produce an audible Teleradiology alarm.

2.4 Asking for Security Requirements of the Customer
Ask the customer for specific requirements regarding data security policy of
the hospital as listed in sections 2.4.1 - 2.4.2.
2.4.1 User Permissions / Authorization
Ask the hospital personnel prior to the installation to decide how they want to define
the user profiles.
IMPORTANT:
SE Suite user and Microsoft Windows user are different user accounts.
There is no single sign on, therefore two user accounts need to be defined.


2.4.2 Certificates
NOTE:
Certificates are applicable only for:
 Web Server in SE Server / SE Standalone
 Each Web Client
In case the hospital representative wants to work with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
communication:
Collect the certificates of the devices with which the SE Suite 2.0 will need to
communicate prior to the installation.
The SSL connection cannot be tested unless all certificates are available.
2.4.3 Hospital Guidelines
The hospital guidelines contain advice to hospital IT-personnel concerning

security-related deployment of the SE workstation in a hospital network environment.
They contain:
 Useful hints on security improvement
 Limitations of the operating system/SE Suite 2.0 software
(1) Cross-check the guideline about password protection of the screen saver
together with the hospital IT manager and the hospital guidelines.
(2) Make sure all of the workstations have this feature enabled to prevent an internal
threat from taking advantage of an unlocked console. For best results:
 Choose the blank screensaver or logon screensaver.
 Make sure the wait setting is appropriate for the business. It is possible to
keep users from changing this setting via Group Policy or the local security
policy.


2.4.3.1 Local Security Policy Setting Guidelines
NOTE:
The following settings concern the Local Security settings of the operating system.
How to edit the settings is described in service manual chapter 5, “Configuration”.
Using Software Restriction Policies

By using a software restriction policy it is possible to prevent unwanted programs from
running. This includes viruses and Trojan horses, or other software that is known to
cause conflicts when installed. Software restriction policies can be used on a
standalone computer by configuring the local security policy, or can be integrated with
Group Policy and Active Directory.

Remarks of the
customer:
3 Obtaining a License File
SE Suite 2.0 utilizes a software license key to secure the application.

It is required for each SE Server, SE Client, SE Standalone and Web Server for SE
Standalone.
The license key has to be obtained from the Agfa Electronic License Management
System (ELMS) before the SE Suite 2.0 installation at the customer site.
For details refer to the 'Service Documentation Licensing (ELMS)' on the Agfa
HealthCare Library (Intranet Link / Extranet Link).


Prerequisites to be able to get the license file:

 Internet access available at installation site.
 Operating system installed on each SE Suite 2.0 computer.
 SE Suite 2.0 software downloaded from the SE Suite FTP Server
(File size approximately 3,4 GB):
For an instruction how to access the FTP Server see following document on the
Agfa HealthCare Library: SE Image Management => SE Image Management =>
SE Suite 2.0 => Software (Intranet Link / Extranet Link)
 SE Suite 2.0 DVD created from the downloaded ISO file.
(1) Insert the SE Installation DVD in

the DVD-ROM drive.
(2) Right-click on file
<StartMeFirst.exe> and select
<Run as administrator>
Figure 1
(3) Select: <Get SE product

activation key>
Figure 2
(4) If an error pops-up: Unable to compute the activation key!:

Check whether the network cable is properly connected: As the activation key is
based on the MAC address, network access is required.
(5) Select “Copy to Clipboard”.
Copy to Clipboard
Figure 3


(6) Open the Notepad program and save the software activation key: It must be
available when connecting to the Agfa HealthCare's Electronic License
Management system (see next step).
(7) Open a web browser manually and connect to the following address:
https://helicensing.agfa.net/rc/
(8) Download the license file.
(9) Rename the license file:

- <IMPAX_SE_SERVER.lic> for SE Server and Web Server for
SE Standalone
- <IMPAX_SE_CLIENT.lic> for SE Client and SE Standalone
(10) Repeat this procedure for each computer where a license is required.
NOTE:
 Demonstration mode:
If SE Standalone starts without detecting any license file, the application will start
in demonstration mode (with limited functionalities and ‘demo’ displayed on
images).
 Grace period:
If SE Standalone already initialized a valid license, but cannot read the license
anymore, the program will switch into a grace period mode of 30 days.
It will warn the user at start up and ask to contact local services to fix the license
problem. Within the grace period, SE Standalone allows access to all
functionalities.
 After the grace period, the software switches to demo mode.
 The user will be notified with a warning and the information about days left in
grace period when starting the software (also a warning is logged).
4 Checking the Hardware / Software Requirements and

Hard Disk Partitioning
Check the hardware / software requirements and required disk partitioning in following
document: 'SE Suite 2.0 - Minimum Hardware and Software Requirements'.
The document is available on the SE Suite 2.0 Software DVD in directory
\Setup\Server\SECLIENTDIR\Documentation\User Manuals
or on the Agfa HealthCare Library (Intranet Link / Extranet Link)


IMPORTANT:
Language of the operating system: It is highly recommended to install the
SE Suite 2.0 components on a MS Windows Operating System native language
identical to the required SE application language.
This is not required for the SE Server however: The SE application language on the
SE Server is always English.
5 Preparatory Tasks of the Customer
5.1 Scheduling Installation Date
Inform the customer about the SE Suite 2.0 installation date and possible impact of
the installation on day-to-day routines (e.g. how long the system will be unavailable in

4.2.1.3 Application - Screen Settings
WARNING:
Wrong settings could lead to wrong measurement results or bad display and
jeopardize patient safety.
Be careful in changing screen settings and configuration. These screen settings are
used to compute image rendering.
WARNING:
Misinterpretation of images by missing calibration of displays jeopardizes
patient safety.
To guarantee the complete image quality chain and to be allowed to diagnose with SE
Standalone software, it is mandatory to connect monitor(s) DICOM calibrated and to
control regularly the quality of the display according the recommendation of the monitor
vendor.
NOTE:
SE Standalone supports a maximum of two screens for image display.
The position (0, 0) of the SE Standalone windows is always bound to the upper left
position of the Main Screen in the system display.

Figure 25: Configuration with one monitor


Figure 26: 1Configuration with two monitors (1 for Database and 1 for Images display)
Figure 27: Configuration with three monitors -

Dual Screen (1 for Database and 2 for Images display)


WARNING:
 Remote control application (such as PC Anywhere, VNC, Network streaming...)
won't work if the monitor set as the "main monitor" in Windows settings has a
resolution higher than 1600 x 1200 pixels.
 When a system is using a multi-monitor configuration using regular monitor
(15/17/19 inches) and diagnosis monitors (3MP/5MP), the main monitor
(WINDOWS screen settings) MUST NOT be a 3MP/5MP but a regular one
(1024 x 768 pixels / 1280 x 1024 pixels).
IMPORTANT:
 Moreover, in some particular cases, it is possible to perform a "remote access"
on a workstation which resolution is higher than 1600 x 1200 pixels (3MP/5MP)
by forcing the settings of RDP session to a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels or
1280 x 1024 pixels (set in SNDB/SRSS).
 With remote assistance, multi screen display is not available. To configure the
main screen and to be able to actually see the application started, use

4.2.1.6 Application - Database
Database
Purpose Modify image browser setup parameters.
(2) Enable or disable Automatic

image loading at CD
insertion if the DicomDir CD
should automatically be started when
CD is inserted
Default: Enabled
(3) Enable or disable the display of
different patients simultaneously.
Remark: By default, SE Standalone
does not allow the user to display
different patient on the same display
Default: Disabled.
Figure 30
(4) The checkbox Tree custom is read only.
(5) Enable or disable Display all thumbnails of a patient.

When disabled, the thumbnail of the first image of each series is displayed in the
thumbnail view. When enabled, this option will display the thumbnails of every
picture (Default: enabled).
(6) Automatic cleaning is performed at a specified time hour (+/- 40 minutes) each
day if the application is started at this specific time. The default value is 1 o'clock.
It is only possible for SE Server or SE Standalone, not for SE Client, and for the
main database only.


IMPORTANT:
 Adjust the clean-up time to working hours. For the default value
"1 o'clock" a.m. the SE Standalone or SE Server could be switched off.
 When SE Standalone is computing the free space of image storage
and the current amount of data, it uses some system functions to get
them.
If the image storage space is shared with another data, the free space
does not reflect the real result: Used disk space will contain SE data
used disk space and external data used disk space.
The automatic cleaning module will delete studies until the low
watermark is reached (and then the remaining free space on disk).
It is therefore very important that the disk containing the images does
not contain other data. See also Minimum Hardware & Software
requirements available on the SE Suite 2.0 Software DVD in directory
or on the Agfa HealthCare Library (Intranet Link / Extranet Link).
(7) Enable or disable Auto dark mode.

When this option is enabled, the database window will get dark if the mouse is

4.2.1.10 Application - Buffers
Buffers
Purpose Define directories of buffers for receiving and sending images.
IMPORTANT:
It is strongly recommended to keep the default settings.
(2) Check the directories according to

the list below.
Figure 35
Reception Directory for reception buffer (temporary “receive” directory).

Buffer This “receive” directory is the folder that contains the images that are being received. If
not present, or if the drive is full, DICOM communication functionality will NOT work.
Default settings folder specified during installation, completed with folders:
Settings\Receive
Emission Directory for the emission buffer (temporary “sent” directory).

Buffer This “sent” directory is the folder that contains the images that are being sent. If not
present, or if the drive is full, DICOM communication functionality will NOT work.
Default settings folder specified during installation, completed with folders.
Settings\Send


Buffer size It is possible to set the buffer size used when integrating received images to SE Server
or SE Standalone storage.
The buffer size value should be in between 0 and 100 MB. Default: 32 MB.
If with this default value, images are sent to the problem folder, reduce the buffer size
value to the smallest file size in the problem folder minus 5 MB.
Example:
There are two files in the “problem folder”: One with 22 MB and one with 18 MB. In this
case reduce the buffer size to 18 MB minus 5 MB = 13 MB.
NOTE:
Parameter “Buffer size (in MB)” was introduced with SE Suite 2.0.1 to solve a problem
with images appearing in the “problem folder”. For more information see also Service
Manual chapter “Troubleshooting”.
4.2.1.11 Application - E-mail

4.2.1.12 Application - Export
Export
Purpose Each CD created with the Export to DICOMdir Media module has a program
named Viewer.exe added (but also the DICOM instances, the binaries and Help
files). This viewer, also known as SE Media Viewer, runs automatically at insertion
of the CD.
These export files are stored under:
C:\Program Files\Agfa HealthCare\SE Client\CdMatrix
The content of this directory is combined with the DICOMdir to be exported on CD by
SE Client via the module: Export to DICOMDIR Media.
(2) Define the directory to add to the

DICOM CD created by SE.
(3) Set the burning API. See NOTE
below.
Figure 37
NOTE:
 Exporting DicomDir on a CD-DVD media is possible using Microsoft IMAPI 2.0.
Do not use Nero burning software (was supported in earlier SE Suite software
versions). IMAPI 2.0 is supported natively starting with Windows Vista and
Windows Server 2008. Enabling IMAPI 2.0 functionality for Windows XP and
Windows Server 2003 requires the installation of the KB932716 update package.
 If the viewer is not required, in Options/Application Settings/Export
window, remove the path to the directory to be added during DICOMdir burning.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure that there is no virtual drive (added using e.g. Deamon Tools) on the SE
Client/Standalone machine when exporting to DicomDir media. This will cause
application crash.

NOTE:
Clean-up will be performed at the time as defined in Application settings /
Database. For details see section 4.2.1.6.
IMPORTANT:
When choosing auto cleaning 'thresholds', be aware that the image local storage area
might be shared with other applications requiring disk space. Cleanup is always based
on available space and it may clean more images than expected, when other programs
using disk space. It is strongly recommended to dedicate a hard drive partition for
application image storage.
Before activating the automatic cleaning of oldest studies, system administrator and
service engineer must carefully set the thresholds that trigger the cleaning of studies,
according to the medical legal rules of his/her country. The system must not start
cleaning the studies that are within the legal long term storage range.
When selecting <Archiving> it is possible to archive on a local path or a network

path:
(1) For CD/DVD, removable/local disks, select a local drive from the dropdown list.
(2) For network storage, use the browse button to specify a network directory.
NOTE:
When the partition or disk space specified for archiving is buggy, a message is
displayed and a warning is logged: “Please verify its volume label (which must not be
empty), if it is available and that specified path is correct”.
Figure 66
If the archiving folder of the series to be archived already exists under the specified
manual archiving path, there is an error dialog displayed for the user and the archiving
process is cancelled (See screenshot below).
Figure 67
If the archiving option is activated with a network storage and automatic cleaning is
activated, then the automatic cleaning will automatically archive the study with the
same principle as for the cleaning.

 As Dicom Overlays Figure 71
 Hardcoded in
image pixels
Modifications include patient information, image rotations, inversions and

windowing.
Graphics are annotations, drawings and measurements.


WARNING:
Loss of information within the image can cause misdiagnosis.
Enabling option <Hardcoded in image pixels> is in the responsibility of the user.
When ROI (Region of Interest) and/or any annotation are hard coded in the pixels,
some relevant information within the image might get lost because the original pixel
information is replaced by the ROI/annotation.
4.2.5.3 DICOM Print Option
(1) Click on <Options> at the below

area of the correspondent screen to

The supported services option
<Print> in the <Correspondent> Figure 72
window must be enabled to get
access to the DICOM Print options..
Figure 73


WARNING:
Misdiagnosis based on improper printouts.
By default, the SE Standalone allows printing on DICOM Printers.
Only administrator profile is able to set-up printers in SE.
It is the responsibility of the Customer to ensure that the
configuration / calibration and the Quality tests have been made properly when
registering a new printer.
Once the quality control has successfully passed, these parameters must not be
modified unless one the component of the imaging chain has changed (e.g. light box
luminance).
NOTE:
If send of Presentation LUT enabled:
SE Standalone will send the Presentation LUT to Printer and send images in P-Values.
To fine tune the system and guarantee image rendering consistency between softcopy
and printed hardcopy, 2 attributes must be sent to the printer: Illumination and
Reflected Ambient Light.
 Illumination is the luminance of the light box where film will be looked.
 Reflected Ambient Light is the luminance contribution of the ambient light
which will have an effect on the luminance of the light box (0 would be value of
absolute dark environment).
These settings depend on the local viewing conditions (light box, ambient light) of the
viewing room. They must be determined when configuring a new printer.
Same printer can be declared several times with different settings (and so for different
viewing conditions).
WARNING:
 Check that Presentation LUT can be received by the DICOM Printer.
If no, disable the option in the DICOM Options Dialog Box.
 Check that Maximum Density can be received by the DICOM Printer.
If yes, enable the option and enter Maximum Density value.
Magnifi- (2) Choose preferred magnification type in the drop list.

cation type
Maximum (3) Enable when printer supports Maximum density sent by workstation.
density Choose the correct value to send to the printer, Default is 300.
The value should correspond with the maximum density value for which the
printer has been calibrated.
Enable in case the printer supports P-Values (Presentation LUT).


Send of Illumination: This parameter depends on the illumination box.

presentation The default parameter for GenRad is 2000 cd/m2.
LUT
Reflected Ambient Light: This parameter depends on the darkness of the
environment. The default parameter for GenRad is 10 cd/m2.
Size of film (4) Choose the films size available in the printer among those available in the list.
What’s in the field Title is only an “alias” a film size really is defined/computed by
columns / rows / pixel size parameters.
With unit it is possible to change unit (inch or cm) for setting input.
(5) Click <OK> to exit and save.
Figure 74
It is possible to declare the same DICOM printer several times in the Directory.
This allows to have different profiles for the same printer, for example:
 Printing with different settings.
 Printing for viewing in rooms with different viewing conditions or light boxes.
NOTE:
It is possible to place two different logos in the printer footer left and right.
The logo has to be available in the \Res folder (Default: D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE
Client\Settings\Res) as defined in the GUI Application Settings – Directories menu.
Details see section 4.2.1.1.
 To customize the logo on the lower left side of the print layout, copy the logo in
the 'Res' folder and rename it to 'CompanyLogo.bmp'.
 To customize the logo on the lower right side of the print layout, copy the logo in
the 'Res' folder and rename it to 'InstitutionLogo.bmp '.


4.2.5.4 DICOM Echo Testing
In the DICOM Options dialog box, a DICOM C-ECHO can be performed in order to
check the availability of the DICOM correspondent. Please note, that not all DICOM
devices implement the C-ECHO functionality.

5.1.2 Appendix: Supported Character Sets / corresponding Languages Relationship

Table
NOTE:
How to use the table next page:
It is highly recommended to install the SE Suite components on a MS Windows
Operating System native language identical to the required SE application language.
If in a particular case this is not possible, then be sure that the character set of the SE
application language matches the character set of the Microsoft Windows OS
language.
This table helps to identify, which languages of the operating system are supported
(i.e. use the same character set).
Example 1:
Language of operating system = Czech  This is an ISO 8859-2 Latin-2 Language.
Following languages do have the same character set, and can be used for SE
application languages:
 Croatian
 Russian
Example 2:
Language of operating system = Turkish  This is an ISO 8859-9 Latin-5 Language.
This is the only language in this table with this character set. No other languages

5.2 Configuring Backup (Smart Backup)
5.2.1 General Information about SmartBackup
SmartBackup:
 Works for SE Standalone and SE Server.
 Can work in silent mode (except restore).
 Can be used by Windows administrator account only (who has write rights).
 Can be used to backup images of the main database installed on a SE system (SE
Standalone or SE Server).
 Creates zip files which name contains date and hour.
WARNING:
Recovering wrong backup files can lead problems with the software, database
crashes and loss of configurations.
In order to backup more than one configuration from different computers, it is
mandatory to specify a different backup path for each computer. In fact, only the last
backup file is conserved in the backup path and all older ones are removed.
NOTE:
SmartBackup uses one temporary folder for backup and restore operations. This folder
path can be specified in the smartbackup.ini settings file.
[Directories]
TempPath=C:\Temp (by default)


5.2.2 Installation of Smartbackup
NOTE:
Smartbackup is automatically installed by SE Suite Installer.
User has to specify the path (UNC path) where backed up zip files will be stored only
(see installer window below).

NOTE:
It is possible to use a different external tool for synchronization simply by adding these
key-values in the smartbackup.ini file under [BackupImages] section:
 Command={name of the synchronization tool}
Example: Command=$Path\Toucan
Variable ‘$Path’ must be changed only if the synchronization tool is located
elsewhere than the current directory.
 For backup  BackupCmdLineArgs={all arguments needed to create a backup
copy (mirror function in most of the time) of the images}
Example: BackupCmdLineArgs=Sync "$Source" "$Target" Mirror "" true true true
true
Which means a synchronization between source and destination in Mirror mode
(the destination is an exact copy of the source).
 For restore  RestoreCmdLineArgs={all arguments needed to restore images}
Example: RestoreCmdLineArgs=Sync "$Source" "$Target" Update "” true true true
true
Which means a synchronization between source and destination directories in
update mode (more recent files are copied).

5.8 HL7 and Dicom Modality Worklist Service Configuration
5.8.1 Basic Functionality
Healthcare Level 7 service (HL7 service; level 7 refers to OSI model) of the SE
provides an interface for receiving data/messages from a Practice Management
System (PMS) or Electronic Medical Record system (EMR). The only accepted
messages are of the type ADT (Patient Admit, Discharge, Transfer), limited to A01
(Admit/Visit Notification ), A08 (Update patient information) and A40 (Merge patient –
patient identifier list). The usage of the messages is as follows:
 A01 – these messages contain demographic data of new admitted patients. In
SE these data are being mapped into appropriate dicom attributes and passed to
the DMWKL service. The DMWKL service makes this data available for the
modalities in form of a DICOM worklist
 A08 – these messages contain update data for a certain patient. These data are
going to be used for patient data reconciliation in the main database of the SE
 A40 – these messages contain data of two patients that need to be merged into
one. These data are going to be used for patient data reconciliation in the main
database of the SE
NOTE:
Key value for reconciliation is the Patient ID.
For Workflow diagram refer to next page.

Standalone application. Modifications that are performed on databases are reflected in
the ‘Base.par’ file stored in ‘Base’ directory:
Default: D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE Client\Settings
IMPORTANT:
Make sure that Base.par file is not in read only status.
Before creating a new database in SE Standalone, make sure to have a dedicated disk
location available to store DICOM instances (e.g. images) of the new database.

5.11 Text File Import Support for SE Worklist
Worklist identification files are simple ASCII files that can be put in the DMWKL mailbox
(default: D:\AGFAHealthcare\SE Client\Settings\DMWKLMailbox) in order to create
records of scheduled exams in the SE DMWKL service database.
Purpose of This option may be used by customers which can not send HL7 A01 messages to
Worklist populate the worklist.
entry via text
files:
Using this option in parallel with typing the data in into the SE Worklist Client helps to
automate patient entry/scheduling workflow as much as possible. Sometimes patient
data have to be enter/modify manually. It may be easier for a third party programmer to
write an interface that is creating such txt files than writing an HL7 / Dicom interface
IMPORTANT:
One identification file must correspond to one scheduled exam.
For example, if a patient comes to have a CT and a CR exam, there must be two
identification files, one for each scheduled exam.
5.11.1 File Naming Convention
An identification file name must be unique and must be with the syntax IDEXXX.TXT.
Recommend file name:
IDEYYYYMMDDHHMMSSXXXX.TXT (e.g. IDE20100214140510001.TXT)
IMPORTANT:
The file name itself is not important, but it is crucial that the counter
"YYYYMMDDHHMMSSXXXX" is different for different files.
Once a file has been incorporated in the worklist database, it is deleted from the
mailbox if the scheduled exam has been correctly saved.
If it is not correctly saved it is put in the "mailbox/problem" folder.


5.11.2 File format
Identification files to interface SE Worklist are ASCII text files.

These files must be encoded in ASCII 8 bits. In addition, coding convention for end of
lines (new line) is the one used in Windows operating system: Two hexadecimal codes
0x0D and 0x0A successively. See table next page.
Some other operating systems use different characters for coding end of lines in text
files (see table next page). Only Microsoft Windows convention is supported by SE
Worklist, so be sure the identification files are created with the right codes for end of
line (especially if it is not running on a Windows operating system).
NOTE:
Other coding than pure ASCII 8 bits, is not supported by SE Worklist.
For example, UTF8 is not supported, because it adds three codes 0xEF, 0xBB and
0xBF at the beginning of files and SE Worklist can’t read them). Unicode is not
supported either.
Inside identification files, data is organized in the style of a Microsoft Windows

parameter file (“ini” file), with sections (between brackets) and keys:
 Only two sections can take place in a file: [Message], [DicomData] and
[Mask].
 The order of the sections and the order of the keys in the files is not important.
 The key name (left of the “=” sign, inside each section) is not case sensitive.
 Comments lines can be put in an identification file. All comment lines must start
with the “;” character.
The [DicomData] section is to give scheduled exams information, using the form of
tags registered in the DICOM standard. Each information tag is composed of two
numbers, the group and the field. These numbers are always four digits, in
hexadecimal format.
Other coding than pure ASCII 8 bits, is not supported by SE Worklist.
A minimum knowledge of DICOM standard is necessary to write identification files to
interface SE Worklist (please refer to DICOM standard, part 6 - data dictionary).
All keys in the [DicomData] section must have the following format:
(DICOM_group,DICOM_field)=value
The parenthesis and the coma are mandatory, and there shouldn’t be any space
between the parentheses.


Example: To give the patient name and the type of modality for scheduled exam, write
the following key in the [DicomData] section:
(0008,0060)=CT
(0010,0010)=MOULENE^Fabrice
Unicode text strings must be translated in non Unicode string according on DICOM
Standard. A dedicated DICOM tag will allow performing the inverse translation at
message integration:
That means that in DICOM images, some tags must not be Unicode according to
DICOM norma (like patient name) and the decoding must be done by the application by
using the given character set.
Example: name ‘Äéïí^õóéïò’ in the text file decoding with character set ISO_IR_126 will
be displayed ‘∆ιον^υσιος’ on the wordlist client.
(0008,0005)=ISO_IR 100 (default value)
5.11.3 Supported information in Identification Files
The following table lists all information supported by SE Worklist in identification files.
Please note the following about DICOM tag keys:
 For every scheduled exam record in SE Worklist, only the 50 listed keys are
stored in SE Worklist database and can be communicated to a modality. Other
tags are ignored.
 Keys representing person names (patients and physicians) must group last and
first names together, separated by character “^”.
 For more information on how to code person names, please see DICOM
Standard part 5 (Data Structures and Encoding).
 Tags having a value multiplicity greater than 1 in the DICOM Standard (several
possible values for one tag), can be written with several values in the
identification files, respecting the DICOM multiplicity value format (values
separated by the “\” character).
 Tags written in red bold are mandatory tags that must be provided to allow SE
Worklist to create a new scheduled exam record in its database.
 Nevertheless, even if SE Worklist identification file format is as open as possible,
it could happen, depending on the modality to connect, that some of the keys not
in bold, are required as well. This may need to be adjusted with the modality
vendor.


 See with modality vendor, or in DICOM standard part 4 (Service Class

Specifications) - Appendix K (Basic Worklist Management), for details on the
mandatory / optional keys, depending of what the modality requests.

5.11.5 Testing created Identification Files in SE Worklist
To test the Text File Import functionality proceed as follows:

(1) Prepare two identification files.
(2) Start SE Client or SE Standalone (depending on what is available).
(3) Check that the SE Worklist mailbox is properly configured.
(4) Start the SE Worklist client.
(5) Copy the first identification file in the DMWKL mailbox: Almost instantly, the
corresponding scheduled exam should appear in the list of records in SE Worklist
main window.
(6) Copy the second identification file: An additional record should appear.
See the troubleshooting section 5.11.6 if the test fails.
5.11.6 Troubleshooting Identification Files Support
The following list of questions supports in troubleshooting:

 Is the mailbox configured properly?
 Is the file name correct?
The name of an identification file must be of format “IDExxxxx.TXT”, with xxxxx
being a number.
 Is the file content coded in ASCII 8 bits with Windows convention?
The file must be coded in ASCII 8 bits with Windows convention for end of lines. If
not, some invisible characters may exist in the file, preventing SE Worklist to read
data properly.
 Does the file contain the two mandatory sections?
An identification file must have at least two parameters sections, [Message] and
[DicomData].
 Does the [Message] section contain a valid message?
The [Message] section must contain a valid message name.
 Are some mandatory tags of the [DicomData] section missing?
In [DicomData] section, there are 8 mandatory tags to provide. Each of these tags
must not be empty and contain a valid value.
 Is there a type or syntax error in the file?
Each section name and key of an identification file, must respect a certain syntax
and data type.To check if a text file is valid for SE Worklist Client, put the text file in
DMWKLmailbox and check that the value has been correctly added in SE Worklist
Client. If the file is moved to ‘problem’ folder, it is not well-formed.

instructions how to create a flatfield) and check
image quality of the scanned image.
IMPORTANT:
During identification of the image in
SE Standalone, select checkbox
"Flat Field Image". Only if this is
activated the image can be
evaluated. If it is not checked, the
image contrast enhancement
software "MUSICA" is applied which
makes the flat field image unusable.



applicable
19 If the image acquisition feature via digitizer is
available and image quality of the faltfield image
is in doubt: Compare digitizer flatfield image with
limit pattern.
Proceeding:
(1) Download the DICOM limit pattern for the
digitizer (e.g. Banding_Pattern_CR30-
X.dcm) from the Agfa HealthCare Library.
(2) Copy the .dcm file to SE, e.g. to the F:\
drive.
(3) Start the SE Media Viewer by double-
clicking file:
C:\Agfa\Healthcare\NX\DataFiles\
DicomViewer\Viewer.exe
(4) Open the digitizer limit pattern (.dcm file).
(5) Compare the limit pattern with the flatfield
image. See also NOTE below.
(6) If the image quality of the flatfield image is
worse than the limit pattern, refer to digitizer
service manual, chapter Troubleshooting.
NOTE:
Note: It is possible to adjust window
and level by pressing the right
mouse button and moving the
mouse.
Left / right  - / + window
Up / down  + / - level
Level 12.500 / Window 10.000
should be optimal. If the image is too
dark increase level to e.g. 15.000.

2 Issues and Solutions
IMPORTANT:
Read the Release Notes delivered with the software for more known bugs
and solutions.
2.1 Issue 1: Images do not appear in the Image Area
Symptom It is possible to successfully log in to the application and find patients, but not possible
to view thumbnails or full size images.
Cause The path to where the images are stored may be incorrect, or not available.
Solution 1 Ensure that there is an Images share specified.
(1) In the SE client, select Options > Databases… to open the databases dialog.
(2) Select the SE database and click <Modify>.
(3) In the resulting dialog, select Images paths…
(4) Ensure that the path displayed in this dialog is correct.
If the client is unavailable, this is also defined in the base.par or

paxbase.par file stored in [drive]\ _SE\Settings\base, where
[drive] is the install drive.
Solution 2 Ensure access to the Images share.
If the images are on a shared network drive, ensure that the Images share is active.
(1) Select Start > Run and type: \\[server name]\Images
If accessible, the share should open.
(2) Enter a user and password that apply to that system and select Remember my
password.
It is required to have an active network connection for any UNC path to
work (i.e. \\server\share).


2.2 Issue 2: It is not possible to log into Application
Symptom When logging into SE, an error message appears similar to the following:
Figure 1
Cause User credentials, configured profiles incorrect.

Solution (1) Ensure that the user credentials are correct.
If necessary, reset the user password in the SE User Management tool.
It is required to enter a new password when logging into the

application next time.
(2) Ensure that the configured Profile share is correct.
The profile is specified in the Se central.

Ensure that the Users directory points to the correct directory.
When configuring a client that will use central profiles on a server, it is required
to specify the share name of the profile directory on the server.
(3) Ensure that access to the Profile share is possible.
If the user accounts are on a central server, ensure that the Profile share is
active by selecting Start > Run and type: \\[server name]\Profile
If accessible, the share should open. If prompted to enter a user and password,
enter the credentials that apply to that system and select Remember my
password.
It is required to have an active network connection for any UNC path to

work (i.e. \\server\share).


DD+DIS222.11E
2.3 Issue 3: Debug Error Message
Symptom An error message appears shortly after logging into SE.
Figure 2
This error may force SE to close.
Cause This error is usually related to the DICOM Mailbox.
Solution (1) Ensure that the DICOM mailboxes are empty.
Refer to the settings in the Se central to find the mailboxes on the system.
(2) Browse to the mailbox folder location and remove any objects that remain in the
folder and try launching SE again.
Normally SE will place objects it can’t import into a Problem folder in the
mailbox. Occasionally it is unable to do this and will force the application to
close.


2.4 Issue 4: SQL Server Database Creation Error at Installation of SE

Standalone on Windows XP SP2/SP3 in Portuguese
Symptom At the end of the installation of SE Standalone on a Windows XP SP2/SP3 Portuguese

Operating System an error message pops up about the fact that databases creation
failed.
Cause The default installation path of SE application is
C:\Program Files\Agfa Healthcare and this default path is provided to SQL
silent installation.
But sometimes, Windows program files folder is not named Program Files.
SQL silent installer installs and creates folder in provided destination folder, but also in
default Windows program files folder. Finally, a part of SQL installation is located in
C:\Program files\... and another part located in C:\Programs\...
It should work normally, but SE application installation needs to use a SQL file in order
to create SE database launching SQL script files.
This SQL file is located in C:\Programs\... (Created by SQL) and SE installer
search it in C:\Program files (SE default path).
Replacing C:\Program files default path during installation by C:\Programs
will place all SQL files in the same place and SE installer could create SE database.
Solution (1) Launch start me first.exe.

(2) When application binaries path
window is displayed, change the
installation directory (replace
C:\Program files\Agfa… by

2.18 Issue 18: Archived Series is not displayed
Symptom Archived series is not displayed.

Cause Archiving path has been modified and the new path is located on a new
media/disk/storage space which has a different serial number.
Solution When loading an archived series, a dialog is displayed to specify the older path. Here it
is not possible to use the dialog to specify a path in order to display the series. The only
way to load this archived data is to update related data in SE database.
To do so open SQL Server Management Studio and execute the following SQL script
on IMPAX_SE database:
Update ARCHIVE set VolumeSerialNumber=N'New_Serial',
Path=N'New_Path', VolumeLabel=N'New_Label' where
VolumeLabel=N'Old_Label'
Comments:
Replace New_Serial by the new serial of the new archiving media/disk/storage.

2.22 Issue 22: Login not possible anymore after changing User Profiles Path
Symptom After change of the path to the folder containing user profiles in menu:
SE Central > SE User Administration Tool > Database or
User Management Tool > Setup > Database
login is not possible anymore.
Cause Path for user profiles should not be changed.

If it is changed, it has to be updated in SE Central and the User Management Tool.
Solution Copy the old profiles from the old path (e.g. D:\Agfa HealthCare\SE
Client\Settings\Profile) to the new defined path.
2.23 Issue 23: Intermittently some Images are shifted to a Problem Folder
Symptom The SE Server stops receiving images from the modality. The images appear in the
“problem folder”, which is located by default in D:\AGFA Healthcare\SE
Server\Settings\DicomMailBox.
Cause Software issue in SE Suite 1.3 (incl. SE+NX) and SE Suite 2.0: Image integration failure
due to file copy function in a UNC path.
Solution Workaround:
(1) Reboot the server
(2) Place the images in the DicomMailbox (as configured in: SE Central > SE
Standalone / Client > Application > Acquisition)
Result: Images are submitted into the database and available for the users.
Final solution: Update to SE 2.0.1 and reduce buffer size value in SE Central:
- SE Standalone / Client > Application > Buffers > Buffer size (in MB)
- SE Server > Service Settings > Buffers > Buffer size (in MB)
The buffer size value should be in between 0 and 100 MB. Default: 32 MB.
If still images are sent to the problem folder, reduce the buffer size value to the
smallest file size in the problem folder minus 5 MB.
Example:
There are two files in the “problem folder”: One with 22 MB and one with 18 MB.
In this case reduce the buffer size to 18 MB minus 5 MB = 13 MB.


2.24 Issue 24: DICOM Echo in SE Central does not work
Symptom DICOM ECHO does not work in SE Central when pinging a DICOM printer.
Printing is not influenced: If parameters are correctly set-up, printing works fine.

Part 2 of the symptom:
In addition, when selecting “Group series
from the same study” this setting is not
saved for all modalities different from CT,
MR, CR and US (e.g. it is not saved for
modality “OT”).
When re-opening the study, the setting has
to be repeated.

4 Tips & Tricks
Overview:
1. Testing the Database
2. Testing ODBC-Connections
3. Shrinking and Reorganizing the Database
4. Moving a Database
5. Using HL 7 Inspector Tool
6. Using the DICOM Mailbox
7. Identifying the installed Database Versions
8. Using the SE Suite Service Dashboard
Back to Frontpage
4.1 Testing the Database
On SE Server or SE Standalone:
(1) Open SQL Server Management Studio.
(2) Check whether the databases (as listed in the Section 1 of this chapter) are
available.
The connectivity to the databases can be checked by the ODBC Data Sources tool,
see section 4.2.


4.2 Testing ODBC-Connections
(1) Click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administration Tools
> Data Sources (ODBC) to open Data Sources (ODBC) tool.
(2) Go to tab System DSN.
(3) Select and double click the ODBC connection to test
(e.g. Admin_ODBC).
(4) Click <Next>.
(5) Enter:
Login ID: sa
Password: For password see menu: SE Central > SE Standalone /
Client > Application > Hanging Protocols
(6) Select Next > Next > Finish > Test Data Source.
Expected result is Test Completed Successfully !
(7) Click <OK>.

(8) Click <OK>.
NOTE:
At problems, check whether the correct SQL Server is entered and whether it is running.
This test can be particularly helpful on an SE Client, to find out whether the Client can see
the server and can connect to both Admin and main database (SE-CLIENT_ODBC).
When e.g. the ODBC connectivity tests are giving successful results and the SE Client still
cannot see the main database (error message before login screen opens).
ACTION:
Check and possibly correct the content of the Base.par file in:
D:\AGFA Healthcare\SE Client\Settings\Base


DD+DIS222.11E
4.3 Shrinking and Reorganizing the Database
With SE Suite 1.3, two database jobs are created with installation of SE Server or
SE Standalone (see SQL Server Management Studio  SQL Server Agent  Jobs).
 ShrinkDatabases-job
 ReorganizeIndexesForDatabases-job
4.3.1 Details to ShrinkDatabases-job
A database shrink is performed every first Saturday of every month at 02:00:00.

This includes IMPAX_SE, Syslog_DB and Worklist databases.
See also section 4.3.3, Adjusting the Execution Time for the Maintenance Job.
4.3.2 ReorganizeIndexesForDatabases-job
Organizing table indexes over the database enhances query performance for client
applications collecting information from this database.
This task is performed every week on Sunday at 00:00:00 and concerns IMPAX_SE,
Syslog_DB and Worklist databases.
See also section 4.3.3, Adjusting the Execution Time for the Maintenance Job.
4.3.3 Adjusting the Execution Time for the Maintenance Job
Execution time and date for database maintenance jobs may be adjusted.
This ensures that SE Server or SE Standalone machines are switched on and that SE
databases are not used by any SE application during maintenance tasks and until the
end of them.
Follow the steps below in order to adjust execution time and date of a
SQL Server 2005 job:


(1) Start SQL Management Studio 2005

and expand SQL Server Agent node
Jobs.
Note, that if the SQL Server Agent is
not started as service, this node will
be not usable.
(2) Double-click on the job which shall
be adjusted: The dialog below will
be displayed.
(3) Select Schedules in the left tree and
double-click on the job schedule in
the list, as displayed.
Figure 14
Figure 15


DD+DIS222.11E
(4) Adjust the frequency and daily frequency of the maintenance job.
IMPORTANT:
For the ‘Shrink Database’ job and the ‘Reorganize Indexes’ job, it is highly
recommended not to change the frequency of this job. It is possible to change the day
and time in the green boxes and keep values in the red boxes (frequency).
See Figure 16 and Figure 17.
Figure 16

MODIFY FILE (NAME = IMPAX_SE, FILENAME =
'F:\NewDBLocation\IMPAX_SE.mdf');
GO
ALTER DATABASE IMPAX_SE

MODIFY FILE (NAME = IMPAX_SE_log, FILENAME =
'F:\NewDBLocation\IMPAX_SE_log.LDF');
GO
NOTE:
Digital Document version:
(1) Select and copy the complete script in Acrobat Reader.
(2) Paste the script inside the opened window of the
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.


DD+DIS222.11E

It is required to have this response in the lower pane:
IMPORTANT:
The file IMPAX_SE has been modified in the system catalog. The new path will be used
the next time the database is started.
The file IMPAX_SE_log has been modified in the system catalog. The new path will be
used the next time the database is started.
(10) Stop the SQL Server engine in order to move physically the database files.
(11) Right click on the SQL Server engine name on the top of the left pane.
Figure 21
(12) Click on <Stop>.

(13) Move the files to the new physical location as specified into the script.
From the folder:
D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.2\MSSQL\DATA
to
F:\NewDBLocation
The original files are named: IMPAX_SE.mdf and IMPAX_SE_log.ldf
(14) Quit the SQL Server Management Studio.

(15) Restart the computer.
Result The physical database is moved to another location.


4.5 Using HL 7 Inspector Tool
IMPORTANT:
Service engineers must be familiar with the HL7 standard.
NOTE:
For more information on HL7 refer to chapter configuration of the SE Service
documentation.
Logs allow knowing if an HL7 message has been received and if it has been performed:
 HL7 message of ID %d has been received
 HL7 message of ID %d has not been performed. Check that
message type can be performed by the application. Check the
validity of the message
 Merge has been done between patient %s and patient %s into
patient %s
 Update has been done on patient %s from fields %s into %s.
If an HL7 message has not been performed it can be identified in the folder:
....\HL7Mailbox\problem folder
or in the database: IMPAX_SE in HL7_CACHE table (message column)
Then it is possible to check each field with HL7 Inspector and documentation.
Figure 22


DD+DIS222.11E
SE: HL7 engine read these following HL7 items (see table), so they are the ones that
must be checked with HL7 Inspector. For that, add the profile AGFA_SE in:
HL7 Inspector in Tools  Profile Manager.
The AGFA_SE profile is available on the SE 1.2 Installation DVD in path:
SE Suite 1.2.0.0\Setup\Client\program files\My Company Name\My Product
Name\Third parties\HL7 Inspector
When pushing on button,

 Icon will appear near HL7 item if it is valid,
 icon will appear near HL7 item if value is too long or undefined,
 Icon will appear near HL7 item if it is not valid (missing item, not valid value,
repetition count overflow etc.).
Figure 23
Figure 24
Figure 25


Figure 26
NOTE:
If the HL7 message does not begin by the string MSH, remove all characters
before MSH.
Example:
NOTE:
Patient data like names and addresses were anonymized with black fields
to keep data private.

4.6 Using the DICOM Mailbox
NOTE:
The DICOM mailbox available in the ‘Settings’ folder of SE Standalone and SE Server
is intended to manually integrate DICOM instances (.dcm files) in the SE databases for
troubleshooting purposes.
Files can be integrated in databases when SE Standalone application or SE Server
service is running.
Corrupted files or other file formats (e.g. thumbnails images (.dic)) can make the SE
standalone / SE server application hang-up.
Proceeding:
(1) Configure the DICOM mailbox directory on the SE Client / SE Standalone in menu
<Options><Application Settings><Acquisition>. For details refer to
chapters 5.1 (Configuration SE Standalone) or 5.3 (Configuration SE Client).
(2) Copy the DICOM files (.dcm) or reports (.txt or .doc) to the DICOM mailbox
directory (e.g. D:\Agfa HealthCare\ClientSettings\DicomMailbox)
Result The DICOM files are integrated in the database and can be used for further
troubleshooting.


4.7 Identifying the installed Database Versions
NOTE:
To identify the version of the SE databases available on the installed SE system a
"DBVersions" Tools is available:
Figure 29
Proceeding:
(1) Start the DBVersions executable file from folders:
- For SE Standalone: C:\Program Files\AGFA Healthcare\SE Client\bin
- For SE Server: C:\Program Files\AGFA Healthcare\SE Server\bin
(2) Check the installed database versions.
Result The database versions are displayed.

1 Integrating the Order List for Documentation
IMPORTANT:
The “order list for documentation” is not part of the service manual for download.
Purpose of the “order list for documentation”:
To verify the latest level and completeness of your Service Manual.
(1) In the MEDNET GSO library select the product of your interest.
(2) Select “Order list and Front page → PRODUCT - Chapter 00 - Order List for
Documentation”.
(3) Download the “order list for documentation” to your computer.
(4) When creating a paper manual:
Print the order list and put it behind the cover sheet.
2 Printing single Pages, Chapters or the complete Manual
IMPORTANT:
Preferably print this manual double-sided:
This PDF manual contains empty pages at the end of several chapters, to have the
next chapter starting with an uneven page number when printed doubles-sided.
If printed one-sided, dispose these empty pages.
Preferably print circuit diagrams on a DIN A3 or ANSI B (Ledger) printer, if

available.
Some pages – especially circuit diagrams for equipment – have been created on paper
size larger than DIN A4/Letter. Printing these pages on DIN A4/Letter may result in
reduced legibility. It is recommended to print these pages separately on a DIN A3 or
ANSI B (Ledger) printer.
