Compressed DICOM files

Hi,

I would like to access Orthanc’s DICOM files when they are configured with Storage Compression.

Which type of compression do you use?

I have a very big repository (29TB) and need to make a bulk transfer.

Regards,

TK

Hi Tomas,
I understand it is zlib
https://book.orthanc-server.com/faq/features.html#compression
There is a small utility to decompress the files
https://hg.orthanc-server.com/orthanc/file/tip/OrthancServer/Resources/Samples/Tools/RecoverCompressedFile.cpp that I think is available in the osimis/docker container. But I haven’t used it so can’t help you with that.
