DCMimport | DICOM Import & Patient Reconciliation

Solution overview

DCMimport is focused on importing DICOM patient data from external media or enterprises and reconciling that information with the local patient and procedure context before the data enters the normal imaging workflow.

Designed for practical radiology workflows

External DICOM importBring studies from outside the local enterprise into the established imaging environment.

Patient reconciliationAlign imported data with the correct local patient and procedure information.

Preserve source dataMaintain the integrity of the original DICOM data while integrating it locally.

Normal downstream useImported studies can continue through the same reporting and archive workflows as locally created studies.

Designed around reconciliation

External studies often contain demographics and identifiers from another institution. DCMimport provides a controlled workflow for bringing those studies into the local environment.

From external media to local workflow

The goal is not simply copying files, but making imported studies usable within the same enterprise processes as native DICOM studies.

What is DICOM Import?

DICOM import brings externally supplied medical imaging studies into an established imaging workflow. DCMimport is intended for importing DICOM studies from media, folders or other supported locations while helping integrate the patient data into the receiving environment.

DICOM patient reconciliation

External studies do not always use the patient identifiers expected by the receiving organization. A controlled import workflow can help reconcile patient and study information before the images are transferred into PACS or another DICOM destination.

External DICOM mediaImport DICOM studies supplied on media or from supported file locations.

Patient reconciliationSupport a controlled workflow for matching imported studies with local patient information.

PACS workflowPrepare imported studies for transfer into the organization's DICOM environment.

Practical integrationHandle outside imaging studies without relying on manual file copying alone.

DCMimport FAQ

What is DCMimport used for?

DCMimport is used to bring external DICOM studies into an established medical imaging workflow.

Can DCMimport be used for DICOM CDs?

Yes. DICOM studies supplied on external media can be imported as part of the supported workflow.

Why is patient reconciliation useful?

It helps align externally supplied patient and study information with the identifiers used by the receiving organization before transfer into the local DICOM environment.
