Print To PACS SDK Libraries
LEADTOOLS includes a set of high-level .NET Framework, C#, and VB components to integrate robust capture functionality into any PACS workflow or infrastructure. LEADTOOLS Print to PACS technology captures images and documents, associates the captured data with studies on a PACS, and stores the captured data to a PACS as a secondary capture and DICOM Encapsulated PDF object. This utility is ideal to incorporate legacy, non-digital, and non-DICOM-compliant applications and devices into a fully digital system, and eliminates the need for costly replacements.
Vast Print to PACS Capture
LEADTOOLS libraries provide several ways to capture information that go beyond printing:
- Virtual Printer Driver - capture the print output from any Windows application by printing directly to the PrintToPACS Printer Driver
- TWAIN - scan images from any TWAIN device
- WIA - capture images from digital devices and media using the WIA interface
- SANE - Linux SANE frontend API to capture images from devices
- Screen Capture - capture any object, window, selected area, and full screen
- Direct Image Import - load more than 165+ image file formats, including PDF
- Capture from the clipboard
Output DICOM Storage Object
Once the data is captured, it can be stored as a DICOM Storage Object:
- Secondary Capture Image Storage
- Multi-frame Secondary Capture Grayscale Byte Image Storage
- Multi-frame Secondary Capture True Color Image Storage
- DICOM Encapsulated PDF
DICOM Patient/Study Metadata Collection
Metadata for the captured object can be gathered from several sources:
- Modality Worklist (MWL) - query any worklist server for scheduled work items and patient/study information
- Query PACS - query any PACS for existing studies and associate the newly captured images to an existing patient or study
- DICOM Data Set File - import the patient/study information from an existing DICOM data set file on disk
- Manual Entry - manually enter the required information
The object can be exported via:
- Save to local folder as DICOM data set
- Store to PACS via DICOM messaging protocols
Industry Standard Compression
All industry standard compressions are available:
- Lossless JPEG
- Lossy JPEG
- Lossless JPEG 2000
- Lossy JPEG 2000
- Uncompressed
