Ultrasound image and DICOM-related components support import, study workspaces and matching. Review the exact machine output and configured local transfer or connector before deployment.
Compatible output → configured transfer or connector.
Patient and study identification → reporting workspace.
Image selection → report → configured storage.
Identify the patient reliably
Agree identifiers and handling of missing or inconsistent values. Test de-identified samples, wrong identifiers and repeated transfers. Unmatched files should require review before appearing in a patient report.
Confirm format and ownership
DICOM-related code does not mean every device or DICOM service is supported. Record model, version, transfer options and sample output. Assign connector, network and monitoring responsibilities.
Accept a representative test
Demonstrate acquisition through final document. Inspect quality, matching and access, then agree recovery for interrupted transfers. Retain established procedures until the integration is accepted.
Questions to consider
Is every ultrasound machine supported?
No universal compatibility is claimed. Provide model, transfer options and sample output for assessment.
