Dicvox

Image to DICOM converter

Description

Dicvox is an application that allows you to convert jpg and png images into DICOM. It is especially useful when certain biomedical equipment does not offer DICOM export. Additionally, it allows sending the converted image to the local PACS for dissemination among specialists. The conversion process requires some mandatory minimum data such as Modality, Media Storage Standard SOP Classes and some patient data.

Installing

git clone https://github.com/alfonsodg/dicvox.git

Testing PACS

The project includes a script that allows you to test the connection with the PACS using the dicom demo image included, I recommend testing the case before configuring the application.

python test_send.py

Executing program

python dicvox.py

Configuration

The first time the application is started, a .db file is created that saves some basic configurations, these must be modified during the first use of the application within the configuration window. The fields are self explanatory. Restart the application when these values have been changed.

Please check the logs in the dicvox.log and the window shell before any request.
