Remote App Execution Plug-ins

September 18, 2023 ยท View on GitHub

The Remote App Execution Plug-ins allow the users to configure a set of DICOM metadata to be replaced with dummy data before being exported using the DicomDeidentifier plug-in. The original data is stored in the database; when the data returns via DICOM DIMSE or DICOMWeb, the data can be restored using the DicomReidentifier plug-in.

Supported Data Types

  • DICOM

Configuration

One or more DICOM tags may be configured in the appsettings.json file. For example, the following snippet will replace the AccessionNumber, StudyDescription, and SeriesDescription tags.

{
    "InformaticsGateway": {
        "plugins": {
            "remoteApp": {
                "ReplaceTags": "AccessionNumber, StudyDescription, SeriesDescription"
            }
        }
    }
}

Refer to NEMA for a complete list of DICOM tags and use the value from the Keyword column.

Note

StudyInstanceUID, SeriesInstanceUID and SOPInstanceUID are always replaced and tracked to ensure the same studies and series get the same UIDs.

Important

Only top-level DICOM metadata can be replaced at this time.
