coming into the cluster from an acquisition
station, validates these incoming studies
against information from the HIS or RIS, and
routes the validated studies to cache or archive.
non-jukebox archive
Functions much like a jukebox archive, except
that it has no mailslots or changer. In a
non-jukebox archive configuration, a volume
is considered to be offline when it leaves the
drive, whereas in a jukebox configuration, the
volume is considered offline when it leaves the
jukebox—either via a mailslot or by manually
reaching in the case and retrieving the volume.
O
OCR
Optical Character Recognition is the
recognition of printed or written characters
by a computer. If a modality generates images
into the system but not enough information
about a study is sent, OCR templates read
information directly from the burned
demographics.
P
PAP
PACS Archive Provider. A PACS Archive
Provider (PAP) acts like a Service Class
Provider (SCP) in that it receives studies.
However, it differs from an SCP in that the
PAP can automatically register a study as
PACS archived if the study originates from a
source that the PACS stores to and remembers
from, without having to queue the study for
archiving back to the source. The PAP can also
parse the private tags of the incoming DICOM
objects to determine HIS verification and
study status.
permissions, IMPAX
Permissions define the available IMPAX
features and types of studies that users in a
particular role have access to. Permissions are
made up of a set of operations.
S
SCP
Service Class Provider. A DICOM server that
receives requests from an SCU. The DICOM
SCP accepts images for processing, processes
find and retrieve requests, and handles storage
commitment requests and replies.
SCU
Service Class User. Primarily sends DICOM
requests to an SCP.
