Sample Applications

Storage SCP
This sample code implements basic DICOM receive transaction, common in most image management servers and imaging workstations. The code initializes the MergeCOM-3 run-time libraries and creates the listener for a third-party (remote) DICOM association request. Following the successful association negotiation, images are received, association closed and interface de-initialized.

DICOM Part 10 Media Send
This sample code implements import of images from DICOM Part 10 files and sending onto a remote DICOM node, scenario common for patient CD media importing into an enterprise PACS system or importing of DICOM files into a reading or post-processing workstation. The code imports DICOM data from Part 10 files, initiates DICOM association to a remote DICOM node and conducts the transfer of images loaded from the filesystem.
