Orthanc support for private DICOM tags for Accuray Precision TPS plans for Radixact machine

Greetings,
I am trying to Push RTplans from Accuray Precision ver. 2.0 TPS to Orthanc db. I found that the tags, e.g., (300d, 1010), (300d, 1012), (300d, 1016), (300d, 1014), (300d, 10a4) has NULL value (please see fig 01).

This tags must have certain values, according to the Accuray conformance statement, (please see fig 02).

When I Download the DICOM file from Orthanc, then I see certain values in those tags with unsupported special characters (please see fig 03).

I am wondering if these tags are supported in Orthanc?

Thank you

Hi,

Orthanc “supports” these tags in the sense that it will not modify or remove them.
However, since these are private DICOM tags, Orthanc does not know about them and can not display them correctly since, e.g, it does not know their VR (Value Representation).

Here’s a link to a nice Article by Rob Oakes that explain how to work with private tags within Orthanc.

HTH,

Alain
