Purpose: To analyze the input and output error of data CD which records the image information and the problems of the server of the compatibility. And to report a compatibility assessment and verification of suitable to DICOM of PACS data CD with investigation of current situation of Korea
METHOD AND MATERIALS: Date CD of each 8 vendors in 30 hospitals was analyzed. We grasped a main verification element existence of a generation compatibility of data CD. The items of element are media identification, DICOM compression, DICOM viewer send, specified object information modify, auto-run, DICOM content type, etc, and give 1 point for each item. We divided the assessment about an each item into 5 levels. Verification about. DICOM conformance by using DICOM validation tool kit is shown to be classified pass or fail according to error occurrence of tag valus. Classify the prequency of tag occurrence as the item.
RESULTS: The average point of date CD compatibility is 8 point (very good), lowest is 5 point (6.6%), and highest is 10 point (23%_. Most high occurrence frequency’s distribution is 7 point (36.6%). As a result of verification about DICOM conformance, PASS in 8 occurrence frequency’s distribution is 7 point (36.6%). As a result of verification about DICOM maximum length numbers (14 items), DICOM error of modality (10 items), discord of pixel data length (6 items). etc.
CONCLUSION: The compatibility of PACS data CD in Korea is excellent, over 7 point, (85%). Important factors of DICOM conformance are the number of Korean alphabet. and whether modality supports DICOM or not. It must be put such problems in the mind when making a data CD.
