Summary

Performs DICOM Instance retrieve operations against DICOM servers.

Syntax

C++

public class PacsRetrieveClient : RetrieveClient

  
Public Class PacsRetrieveClient  
   Inherits RetrieveClient

public ref class PacsRetrieveClient : public RetrieveClient

Remarks

This class supports image retrieval either by moving them into another server or by retrieving them locally.

If the images are retrieved locally you can specify that the retrieved images be stored in a local storage source by setting the StoreRetrievedImages property to true.
