Overview

Freeware for Windows 2000/XP/Vista

DICOM_Dir is a Windows tool that allows you to create a DICOMDIR file for DICOM part 10 files.

DICOM_Dir is a simple drag & drop program. Just drop a directory on the program's interface and it will parse the tree structure rooted at that directory, extract the information of all the DICOM part 10 files it find and create a DICOMDIR file for these in the root directory.

for each file, DICOM_Dir will create these default DICOM tags:

• (0010,0010) Patient Name in the [PATIENT] section.
• (0020,000D) Study Instance UID in the [STUDY] section.
• (0020,000E) Series Instance UID in the [SERIES] section.
• (0008,0018) SOP Instance UID in the [IMAGE] section.

In addition, in the DICOM_Dir.ini file, you can specify more tags to be created for each of the [PATIENT], [STUDY], [SERIES] and [IMAGE] sections. If these tags are present in the original files, they will be included in the DICOMDIR.
