Ensure Assigning Authority for Patient Identifier
Content
Patient records in DCM4CHEE 5 are identified by a unique primary patient identifier. For cases wherein modalities store DICOM
objects to the archive without any assigning authority i.e. Issuer of Patient ID (0010,0021) and / or Issuer of Patient ID Qualifiers Sequence (0010,0024)
DICOM attributes in it, archive supplements the issuer by default, using the default configured coercion explained below.
It uses a prefix DCM4CHEE and appends hash values of Patient Name and Patient Birth Date.
Depending on the application requirements, users can coerce issuer either using the default configured coercion explained below or by using any of the following use cases :
The Issuer of Patient ID / Issuer of Patient ID Qualifiers Sequence coerced in the dataset are only present in the database. It is not coerced in the DICOM files stored on the storage system.
Refer
- Archive Coercions Basic Overview for general understanding on archive attribute coercions.
- Merge or Nullify Dataset Attributes for understanding this coercion type.
This howto provides configuration, test and verification steps for :
to coerce issuer to a patient identifier configured by default on DCM4CHEE application entity.
