What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines querying an Orthanc DICOM server to locate studies, accession numbers, and study metadata by MRN, accession number, or study date, removing the need to manually craft REST calls and convert DICOM dates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Search and lookup: Query Orthanc by PatientID (MRN), AccessionNumber, or date using the /tools/find endpoint.
  • Study and series details: Retrieve study-level tags, series lists, and image counts via /studies/{id} and /series/{id}.
  • Date handling and fallbacks: Convert user dates (MM/DD/YYYY) to DICOM YYYYMMDD, check both MainDicomTags and simplified tags, and handle missing accession numbers gracefully.
  • Real-time monitoring: Monitor the /changes feed to detect new instances and optionally filter by study description.
  • Use case: Look up a patient's accession for a specific visit date, generate series-level image counts for a study, or continuously monitor incoming MRI studies for processing pipelines.
