Query a remote database and retrieve from a remote system

The user of the LOGIQworks system wants to have a view on a remote DICOM database and either
views the complete contents of the remote database or fills out a query dialog box with fields for Patient
Name, Patient ID, Study date, etc. Wild cards can be used instead of fully specified information to allow
flexible queries. The contents of this dialog box and the requested columns in the Remote view can be
fully configured, hence the contents of the Query data is dependent on the configuration.
After a view on a remote DICOM database has been obtained the user makes a selection of one or more
studies, series or images and subsequently presses the Import button. This will initiate the transfer of
images from the remote system to the local database of LOGIQworks.
Please refer to
Note that the LOGIQworks front-end application performs the C-MOVE operation while the destination
of the resulting C-STORE operation is the LOGIQworks Connection Service

Print management

The LOGIQworks user selects a study in the local database and submits it to the Print Service as a job
for the desired laser imager. The user can choose several parameters such as the layout of the film and
number of copies. Or the LOGIQworks user creates a Virtual Film Sheet print job from the studies
available in the Viewing module and submits it as a job for the desired laser imager. On a per-image or
per-sheet basis several parameters can be altered. When submitting the job the user can choose a few
parameters, such as the number of copies.
The LOGIQworks Print Service is able to send the appropriate data to printers that support True Size
printing, both for gray scale printers and color printers. The LOGIQworks Print Service will send the pixel
data in its native size and additionally sends the Requested Image Size, which is considered to be a
request to the Print SCP to Print at that size.
Please note that there is no formal way in DICOM to verify whether a DICOM Print SCP actually
supports True Size printing, and that some Print SCPs do not report a failure when the Requested
Image Size was requested by the SCU but not supported by the SCP.
As a result LOGIQworks Print Service can be configured in a way that it seems that images will be
printed True Size, while they are just printed at a different size. It is up to the system integrator to verify
from the printer's DICOM conformance Statement whether that printer supports True Size printing,
before setting the True Size option in the configuration for that particular printer.
