Introduction
The document outlines the DICOM conformance claim for the Acquisition Workstation (AWS), which interfaces with an amorphous selenium X-ray detector for image acquisition. It routes images and information to output devices via DICOM interfaces, using a GUI with a touch screen, keyboard, and monitor.
Audience
This document is intended for those connecting the AWS to other DICOM-standard components. It applies to AWS Software version 1.11/2.2 and assumes familiarity with the DICOM standard and PACS components.
Remarks
The DICOM conformance statement helps determine the suitability of interconnecting digital imaging devices. However, it does not guarantee interoperability, which can only be confirmed through connectivity testing. The document reflects the functionality of commercial AWS versions and may change as the DICOM standard evolves.
Definitions, Terms, and Abbreviations
Key terms include Amorphous Selenium, AE (Application Entity), AWS (Acquisition Workstation), CAD (Computer-aided detection), DICOM, and others related to imaging and communication standards.
References
The document references the NEMA PS3 / ISO 12052 DICOM Standard.
Networking
Implementation Model
The AWS supports various application entities (AEs) for tasks such as acquiring images, printing, storing, querying, and retrieving images. Each AE has specific roles and functions, such as the Modality Worklist Client AE, which downloads worklists from remote nodes, and the Storage Client AE, which sends images to remote AEs.
Functional Definition of AEs
Each AE has a defined function, such as:
  • Modality Worklist Client AE: Downloads and manages worklists from remote nodes.
  • Modality PPS Client AE: Manages MPPS Instances for acquired images.
  • Print Client AE: Manages print jobs and interacts with remote printers.
  • Storage Client AE: Manages image storage jobs to remote AEs.
  • Storage Commitment Client AE: Manages image commitment requests.
  • Query/Retrieve Client AE: Manages queries and retrievals of images from remote AEs.
  • Storage Server AE: Accepts echo and storage requests.
  • Verification Client AE: Provides DICOM troubleshooting tools.
Sequencing of Real World Activities
Users initiate DICOM storage or print by selecting output devices and acquiring digital images.
Image Transmission and Storage
Images can be transmitted immediately or after procedure closure, depending on configuration. Storage Commitment requests are sent for successfully stored images. Users can initiate DICOM storage or print images separately. Errors during transmission are retried if temporary; otherwise, they are stopped, with user notifications provided.
Worklist Management
The system supports querying and retrieving patient studies, with the Acquisition Workstation receiving selected studies via the Storage Server AE. The Modality Worklist Client AE provides standard conformance to the Modality Worklist Information Model - FIND SOP Class, supporting user-initiated and automatic updates.
Association Policies
The system initiates one association at a time and does not support asynchronous operations. It uses a configurable query strategy, supporting various matching and return key attributes for both user interactive and automated queries.
Modality PPS Client AE
This entity provides standard conformance to the Modality Performed Procedure Step SOP Class. It initiates associations for acquiring images and updates the MPPS SOP Instance status based on user actions, such as completing or discontinuing a procedure.
Key Tables and Diagrams
The document includes sequence diagrams for image acquisition, query/retrieve, and storage processes. It also provides tables detailing SOP classes, association policies, matching keys, and return key attributes.
Critical Information
The document emphasizes the importance of correct configuration for efficient operation, including query strategies, matching keys, and handling of communication failures. It also highlights user notifications for errors and the impact of worklist item quality on user efficiency.
Specifications
The Acquisition Workstation supports unscheduled cases and a 1-to-n relationship between Scheduled and Performed Procedure Steps. It creates new MPPS SOP Instances for additional procedures under the same Accession Number. The Modality PPS Client AE initiates associations with remote MPPS SCP AE for N-CREATE and N-SET requests, ensuring successful N-CREATE requests before proceeding with N-SET requests.
Procedures
The document details the behavior of the Acquisition Workstation in response to various MPPS N-CREATE or N-SET response statuses, logging failures and allowing users to check job statuses. Communication failures are handled by retrying MPPS jobs based on configuration before reporting errors.
Standards
