Adding a filter for a destination station

To configure which images are sent to a particular destination, use the Destination Filter tab of Network Management. For instance, for RGB images to go only to a certain destination, then set a filter for the photometric_interpretation DICOM tag where the value is equal to RGB.

CAUTION!

CAUTION!

If one or more filters are set for a destination, then only images that match at least one of the filters are sent to that destination. If you unsure of what filters to apply, leave this tab at default with no filters, to ensure that all images are sent.

Apply filters only to destination stations. A destination is any external DICOM destination to which images are transmitted, such as a web server. This does not include printers.

To add a filter for a destination station

  1. On the Setup tab, click Network Management. Network Management

  2. Switch to the Destination Filter tab.

  3. From the list at the bottom of the tab, select the destination station to configure.

  4. In the Filter Expression 1 list, type or select an expression representing the tag to filter on.

    The expression must be in the DICOM-Mitra format; for example, getdicomstring(...).

  5. From the Filter Type list, select the connection between the two expressions: Equal to, Not Equal to, Begins with, Ends with, Contains, Less than, or Greater than.

  6. From the Filter Expression 2 list, type or select an expression representing the value of the tag to filter on.

    When typing values, do not use single quotation marks around the expression; constants, however, do require single quotation marks.

  7. Click Add Filter.
