  Configure the PACS for Storage

Your supervisor had already granted you admin access to the PACS application. You successfully launch the PACS admin console on the server. It's time to enter the AET, IP and Port. But to your dismay, you accidentally wiped the AE information for the PACS and saved it.

Now the PACS field is blank...

The battle is not lost. In the sea of sticky notes, there is one with the PACS information.

Though now... not only do you have to add the new Ultrasound modality AE.... You'll also have to add the PACS AE back. In order to do this you'll need to understand the difference between SCU and SCP of the C-Store operation.

Enter the following configuration:

The Ultrasound application entity title is USPROD. The static IP address is 192.168.1.10. The port is the default DICOM port. The PACS application entity title should be called PACSPROD. The host is 192.168.1.2 and the port is the default DICOM port.



Use the following PACS emulator to configure the PACS. Use Full Screen mode to better visualize.

DICOM Lab
Local SCP Settings (Listener)
STOPPED
Authorized SCU Node (Remote AE)
NOT CONFIGURED

Configure and verify the remote Ultrasound modality.

Hint: A service class user of the store command is the device trying to send the images. The service class provider of the store command is the device accepting the images for storage.

If you were able to save the configuration successfully, please move on to the next lesson.
