I'm trying to integrate the Orthanc into our infrastructure and got negative feedback from users with search issues. Is it possible to provide case insensitive C-FIND requests (/modalities/orthanc/find-patient)? Thanks.
Hi,
Hi Sebastien,
testing with Orthanc 1.2, Osirix 8 and an dcm with PatientName as follows:
PatientName (0010,0010) KÃTEST^TEST
Seeing that the config var. is not working as expected.
Osirix finds the patient if I search for “K” or “KÄ” but not for “Kä”
It makes no difference if I set the config var to true or false
// When handling a C-Find SCP request, setting this flag to “true”
// will enable case-sensitive match for PN value representation
// (such as PatientName). By default, the search is
// case-insensitive, which does not follow the DICOM standard.
“CaseSensitivePN” : false,
Looks like a problem when using german umlaute like “Ää” or the config flag does not work at all (have not tested other cases yet)
best
Torsten
Dear Torsten,
I confirm that case-insensitive matching over special characters is not supported as of Orthanc <= 1.2.0.
I have just introduced an issue in our bugtracker:
