Multiple Transfer Syntaxes, Single Gateway

Tests the ability of the Initiating Imaging Gateway actor (SUT) to respond correctly to a Retrieve Image Document Set (RAD-69) Request from an Image Document Consumer actor (Simulator), for a single DICOM image file with two acceptable Transfer Syntaxes. The image is not available on the Responding Imaging Gateway with the first transfer syntax but is available with the second.

Retrieve Parameters

RIG Home Community ID (A) urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.21367.13.70.101
IDS Repository Unique ID (A1) 1.3.6.1.4.1.21367.13.71.101
Transfer Syntax UID
  • 1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.50: JPEG Baseline (Process 1)
  • 1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.70 - JPEG lossless.

Note: Although the test environment provides for three Responding Imaging Gateways and multiple Image Document Sources, this test expects a single image to be returned, from a single Responding Imaging Gateway (A) and a single Imaging Document Source (A1) behind that gateway.

Test Execution

The test consists of four steps:

  1. Test software sends RAD-69 request to System Under test and records response.
  2. Test software validates the RAD-75 request that is sent by the System Under Test.
  3. Test software validates the RAD-69 response sent by the System Under Test.
  4. Test software validates the image returned in the RAD-69 response to make sure the System Under Test did not alter the image.
