EFILM + ORTHANC - How to know how many files are missing

Hi,

First of all thank you very much for those interested in answering this question|:

I’m using efilm to send the DICOM files to the orthanc server, everything is working fine, but I wanted a way to know the status, if files are still being sent or how many are still missing to complete the study.

Sending through api rest I realized that I can look at the status, but sending through efilm I did not find a way to know if the upload is finished.

Hi,

But is there any way to find out on orthanc that the study has a total amount of so many files, but some images are missing or is it only possible to find out with the software that is sending this study?
I tried for the information contained in the DICOM received at the beginning of the transmission, but I couldn’t find a field for that.

In fact I just wanted a quick way and that I had information about the completion of the shipment, it doesn’t have to be through efilm, but it is what was already installed on the client, do you recommend any options besides sending via the browser?

The DICOM network protocol doesn’t propose a direct way so that a source DICOM modality can inform a target DICOM modality about the number of DICOM instances it will send using a C-STORE command.

Typical solutions to this issue consist in taking advantage of storage commitment after C-Store (https://book.orthanc-server.com/users/storage-commitment.html), of DICOMweb STOW-RS (https://book.orthanc-server.com/plugins/dicomweb.html), or of a custom API (such as the mechanism of Orthanc peers or the transfers accelerator plugin of Orthanc).

Thank you very much for the answers, I will analyze changing then the client’s sending process to send through orthanc itself, but would there be any way to know the quantity of images through the orthanc database?
Because I noticed that osimis shows the total images of the study, if I see that the total is increasing, at least I know it is still being sent.

I think that you are looking for the “…/statistics” routes in the REST API of Orthanc:

You can find examples of calls to “statistics” in the integration tests (written in Python) of Orthanc:

Thank you very much for the information. I will review the upload process and check the possibility of using the statistics.
