Tip

The OnePacs Study Retriever will automatically download studies from the OnePacs cloud to your workstation.  This is the recommended way to view studies in the OnePacs ecosystem.

 


The OnePacs Study Retriever is the usual means of viewing studies from the OnePacs web application's worklist on OPW.  The Study Retriever is installed with OPW and will enable users to retrieve studies from the OnePacs cloud automatically.

It is also possible to send studies from OnePacs Workstation to another DICOM destination, such as an alternative viewer, the OnePacs Gateway (for transmission to the OnePacs Web Server), another user's OnePacs Workstation, or other DICOM devices such as MR or CT scanners.

To do so, first add the DICOM destination as a server in the server list. In the Explorer window, right-click on the “Servers” folder and select “Add server”. In the “Server Name” field, enter the name by which you would like the destination to be listed in the server list. This name is for convenience and is not part of the actual communication protocol. In the “Host” field, enter the IP address or host name of the destination. The field “Location” is for labelling convenience and is also not used in actual communications.

In the DICOM section, enter the AE title and port of the DICOM destination.

The Image Streaming section of the “Add New Server” will provide support for image streaming when used with future updates of the OnePacs Web Servers.

When the above values are entered, you may use the echo  icon to verify connection to the DICOM device. Some DICOM devices may require that the AE title of the Workstation (by default, OPW) be added to the device's list of approved AE titles before they will respond to the verification echo.

To send studies to the destination, once added, select “Local studies” as the study source in the Explorer window, find and select the study in the search results window, then use the send  button to transmit the study or studies to the chosen destination.

If studies are sent to the OnePacs Gateway destination, they will be automatically added to your OnePacs database of studies and will be available in the OnePacs worklist.

Deletion of Data on Logout

If it is desired that the Workstation purge locally stored copies of imaging data/PHI at the end of each reading session, the option to "Delete image data on logout" can be activated in the OnePacs study retriever. When this option is selected, and the user logs out of the Study Retriever, the local database of, and local copies of, imaging data will be purged from the Study Retriever and the Workstation on Study Retriever logout.
