Assembly - Class/Namespace	Comments
Leadtools.Dicom.Scu.dll - Leadtools.Dicom.Scu	Provides classes and methods that implement DICOM Storage Service and DICOM Query/Retrieve Service.
Leadtools.Dicom.Server.Admin.dll - Leadtools.Dicom.Server.Admin	Provides classes and methods that implement DICOM Server Administration.
Leadtools.Dicom.AddIn.dll - Leadtools.Dicom.AddIn	Provides classes and methods that implement DICOM add-ins Leadtools.AddIn.DicomLog -Implements the INotifyReceiveMessage & INotifySendMessages interfaces. This allows the add-in to log all incoming and outgoing DICOM Messages. The logging is handled by the Microsoft Enterprise Library logging. The add-in creates a Log directory in the DICOM server directory. All log information is written to an "output.log" file. If dataset saving is enabled they are written to Log\Datasets. The file name of the saved dataset is the SOP Instance UID. Leadtools.AddIn.Store - Implements the IProcessCStore interface. This add-in implements a StorageSCP. The following storage classes are supported: CT Image Storage NM Image Storage DX Image Storage MR Image Storage Hemodynamic Waveform Storage XA Image Storage CR Image Storage US Image Storage SC Image Storage US Multiframe Image Storage Video Endoscopic Image Storage Video Microscopic Image Storage XRay Radiofluoroscopic Image Storage Nuclear Medicine Image Storage (Retired) Ultrasound Image Storage (Retired) Ultrasound Multi-frame Image Storage (Retired) Standalone Overlay Storage (Retired) Standalone Curve Storage (Retired) Basic Study Descriptor (Retired) Standalone Modality LUT Storage (Retired) Standalone VOI LUT Storage (Retired) X-Ray Angiographic Image Storage X-Ray Angiographic Bi-Plane Image Storage (Retired) X-Ray RF Image Storage RT Image Storage RT Dose Storage RT Structure Set Storage RT Plan Storage Positron Emission Tomography Image Storage Standalone Positron Emission Tomography Curve Storage (Retired) Stored Print Storage (Retired) Hardcopy Grayscale Image Storage (Retired) Hardcopy Color Image Storage (Retired) Digital X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation Digital X-Ray Image Storage - For Processing Digital Mammography X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation Digital Mammography X-Ray Image Storage - For Processing Digital Intra-Oral X-Ray Image Storage - For Presentation Digital Intra-Oral X-Ray Image Storage - For Processing RT Beams Treatment Record Storage RT Brachy Treatment Record Storage RT Treatment Summary Record Storage VL Endoscopic Image Storage VL Microscopic Image Storage VL Slide-Coordinates Microscopic Image Storage VL Photographic Image Storage Basic Text SR Storage Enhanced SR Storage Comprehensive SR Storage Enhanced MR Image Storage MR Spectroscopy Storage RAW Data Storage Secondary Capture Multi-Frame Single Bit Image Storage Secondary Capture Multi-Frame Grayscale Byte Image Storage Secondary Capture Multi-Frame Grayscale Word Image Storage Secondary Capture Multi-Frame True Color Image Storage Key Object Selection Document Storage Mammography CAD SR Storage Chest CAD SR Storage Ophthalmic Photography 8 Bit Image Storage Ophthalmic Photography 16 Bit Image Storage Stereometric Relationship Storage Video Photographic Image Storage Pseudo-Color Softcopy Presentation State Storage Blending Softcopy Presentation State Storage Procedure Log Storage X-Ray Radiation Dose SR Storage Enhanced CT Image Storage Spatial Registration Storage Deformable Spatial Registration Storage Spatial Fiducials Storage Hanging Protocol Storage Encapsulated PDF Storage Encapsulated CDA Storage Real World Value Mapping Storage Enhanced X-Ray Angiographic Image Storage Enhanced X-Ray RF Image Storage RT Ion Plan Storage RT Ion Beams Treatment Record Storage Segmentation Storage Ophthalmic Tomography Image Storage X-Ray 3D Angiographic Image Storage X-Ray 3D Craniofacial Image Storage Enhanced PET Image Storage Lensometry Measurements Storage Autorefraction Measurements Storage Keratometry Measurements Storage Subjective Refraction Measurements Storage Visual Acuity Measurements Storage Spectacle Prescription Report Storage The following transfer syntaxes are supported: Implicit VR Little Endian JPEG 2000 JPEG Lossless Only JPEG Baseline 1 Explicit VR Big Endian Explicit VR Little Endian JPEG Lossless No Hierarchal 14 JPEG Lossless No Hierarchal 14B When the add-in loads, it creates a new SQLCE 3.5 database (Dicom.sdf) in the server directory. In addition, it creates an Images directory in the server directory that will contain all the DICOM datasets received at the server. Leadtools.AddIn.Find - Implements the IProcessCFind interfaces. This add-in implements a DICOM Query service. This add-in supports the following service classes: Patient Root Query Find Study Root Query Find This add-in makes use of the same database that is created by the Store add-in. If the database does not exist when this add-in is called it will be created. Therefore, it does not matter if you attempt a find before doing a store. Leadtools.AddIn.Move - Implements the IProcessCMove interface. This add-in implements a DICOM Retrieve service. This add-in supports the following service classes: Patient Root Query Move Study Root Query Move This add-in makes use of the same database that is created by the Store add-in. If the database does not exist when this add-in is called it will be created. Leadtools.AddIn.MWLFind - Implements the IProcessCFind interface. This add-in supports the following service classes: Modality Worklist Find This add-in creates a SQLCE 3.5 Database(MWLSCP.sdf) in the server directory. In addition, this add-in creates an Option Dialog that allows you to edit the database from the Server Manager. Leadtools.AddIn.StorageCommit - Implements the IProcessNAction interface. This add-in supports the following service classes: Storage Commitment Push Model Class This add-in makes use of the SQLCE 3.5 Database created by the storage add-in. It expects the database to be already created. If the database is not available the Commitment request will generate a ResourceLimitation error. If the database is present, the commitment request is processed in another thread and a response is immediately sent back to the client. Once the commit request is finalized a notification is sent on behalf of the add-in to the originating client.
Leadtools.Medical.Workstation.DataAccessLayer.dll - Leadtools.Medical.Workstation.DataAccessLaye	Provides classes and methods that implement an interface to allow the data provider to access and update DICOM information.
Leadtools.Medical.Workstation.AddIns.dll - Leadtools.Medical.Workstation.AddIns	Provides classes and methods that implement Medical Workstation AddIns: FindAddIn - Implements the IProcessCFind interface to respond to DICOM C-FIND-REQ commands MoveAddIn - Implements the IProcessCMove interface to respond to DICOM C_MOVE-REQ commands. StorageCommitAddIn - Processes a DICOM Storage Commitment Push Model class by implementing the IProcessNAction interface. StoreAddIn = Implements the IProcessCStore interface to respond to DICOM C-STORE-REQ commands.
Leadtools.Medical.Workstation.Client.dll - Leadtools.Medical.Workstation.Client	Provides classes and methods that implement a medical workstation client that communicates with DICOM servers.
Leadtools.Medical.Workstation.Loader.dll - Leadtools.Medical.Workstation.Loade	Provides classes and methods that loads medical viewer images, series, or studies and initializes a MedicalViewer control.
