To configure a specific DICOM device, go to the DICOM Services page.


Define general DICOM settings that apply to all DICOM devices in the DICOM Services section of the Devices page.  This section contains the Modality Worklist day range used in worklist query requests, the Timeout period used when querying a Mitra Broker, and the promiscuous mode setting.

With Promiscuous Mode enabled, PracticeBuilder accepts valid DICOM associations from any entity.   To restrict access to the server and only accept associations from known entities, clear the checkbox and click Save.

The DICOM Services page defines the DICOM configuration parameters for each device.  When you create a new DICOM device, PracticeBuilder displays this page so you can set the supported DICOM services, DICOM forwarding settings, AE Title, timeout settings, and data coercion rules.  Display a device's current settings by clicking the Edit button for the DICOM device.

DICOM services, forwarding rules, AE Title and timeout values are entered into the DICOM Services Table.  The data coercion rules are defined in the Data Coercion Table.
