2.2.1.2 Association Initiation by Real-World Activity
This AE attempts to initiate a new association due to a “Push” operation initiated by
the user. A new association is also initiated when the user performs a “Query
Remote” operation or issues a retrieve operation by performing a “Get” operation
at Study/Series/Image level.
2.2.1.2.1 Push Image(s) to Remote AE
2.2.1.2.1.1 Associated Real-World Activity
The operator must first select a destination by choosing “Select Remote Host”
from the “Network” pull-down menu on the local database manager and then
choose a hostname.
The “Push” operation will cause the DICOM server AE to initiate an Association
when the operator selects one or more study, series, or images in the local
database manager and then chooses either “Send examination”, “Send series”, or
“Send image” from the “Network” pull-down menu on the local database manager.
Note: If multiple study, series, or images are chosen to be pushed, one association will be established for
each of the studies, series, or images. A single association for a single series will be used for the multiple
C-STORE operations necessary for the images in the series.
2.2.1.2.1.2 Proposed Presentation Contexts
The following table shows the proposed presentation contexts for the DICOM
Server AE after Real-World Activity “Push” Operation has been performed. The
following selection method is used when choosing from multiple accepted transfer
syntaxes:
1. If image is stored locally in Implicit VR the order of preference is as follows:
i) Implicit VR Big Endian (GE private transfer syntax, see section 2.4.3)
ii) Implicit VR Little Endian
2. If image is stored locally in Explicit VR or in proprietary Advantage format the
order of preference is as follows:
i) Explicit VR Big Endian
ii) Implicit Big Endian (GE private transfer syntax, see section 2.4.3)
iii) Implicit VR Little Endian
iv) Explicit VR Little Endian
