1Implementation
Overview
Each HP Medical Archive is implemented as an application entity that provides the following features:
• Receives and stores images sent by remote entities
• Sends images to remote entities
• Allows a remote entity to query the archive and retrieve images
• Allows a remote entity to perform storage commitment for a set of images stored in the archive
The remote archive access and image transfer functions are implemented using the DICOM storage and
query/retrieve service classes.
Application Data Flow Diagram
The HP Medical Archive behaves as a single application entity. The related implementation module is
shown in Figure 1 on page 8.
Functional Definitions of Application Entities
The HP Medical Archive application entity acts as a service class provider of verification, storage,
query/retrieve, and storage commitment.
Sequencing of Real-World Activities
Not applicable.

2Application Entity Specification
Supported SOP Classes
Service Class User
The HP Medical Archive application entity provides standard conformance to the following DICOM V3.0
classes as an SCU:
FIND Patient Study Only Query/Retrieve
Information Model
MOVE Patient Study Only Query/Retrieve
Information Mode
Association Establishment Policies
General
In order to provide the Query/Retrieve Service Classes listed in Table 2, the HP Medical Archive initiates
associations over the Storage Classes listed in Table 1.
The HP Medical Archive accepts associations in order to provide Service Classes listed in Table 2. The
HP Medical Archive supports a maximum PDU size of 16 KB.
Number of Associations
The HP Medical Archive handles each association request it receives. The number of simultaneous
incoming associations accepted by the archive is limited by the kernel configuration of the underlying
operating system.
Asynchronous Nature
Not applicable. All association requests must be completed and acknowledged before a new operation
can be initiated.
The HP Medical Archive proposes a Presentation context for Verification as shown in Table 4.
Sending Image Objects to an External Entity
Associated Real-World Activity
When the HP Medical Archive is requested to send images in a study to a remote AE, the HP Medical
Archive attempts to create an association and send the images using the C-STORE command. If a second
request for a study is made while the first study is being requested, additional parallel associations are
established, up to the configured maximum number of parallel associations to that AE. If the maximum
number of associations for C-STORE to that AE is reached, the archive waits until one of the associations
becomes available. When an association becomes available, it either sends it over the existing association
(if the negotiated SOP Classes are compatible), or closes the association and establishes a new one.

Proposed Presentation Contexts
When the HP Medical Archive initiates an association with an external entity, it uses a presentation context
that includes an abstract syntax corresponding to the SOP Class UID and the transfer syntax of the image
to be transferred.
SOP Specific Conformance Statement
The HP Medical Archive does not attempt an extended negotiation, nor does it change, add, or delete any
elements from the files it transfers. The HP Medical Archive sends a C-MOVE response message for each
image transferred, plus a final C-MOVE response with a status of SUCCESS when the C-MOVE has
completed.
Retrieving Requests from an External Entity
Associated Real-World Activity
If an application successfully establishes an association with the HP Medical Archive and makes a valid
C-MOVE request identifying one or more images found in its database, the HP Medical Archive initiates an
association with the destination specified in the C-MOVE request.
Proposed Presentation Contexts
In response to a C-MOVE request, the HP Medical Archive builds a list of images to be moved and
proposes the presentation context as needed. The presentation context includes an abstract syntax
corresponding to the SOP Class UID and the transfer syntax of the image to be transferred.
1.2.840.10008.1.2SCUNone
If the destination specified in the C-MOVE request does not accept the proposed presentation context, the
images are not transferred and an error status is returned to the calling application entity.
SOP Specific Conformance Statement
18Application Entity Specification
The HP Medical Archive does not attempt an extended negotiation, nor does it change, add, or delete any
elements from the files it transfers. The HP Medical Archive sends a C-MOVE response message for each
image transfer attempted. A final C-MOVE response message is sent after attempts have been made to
send all images.
Association Acceptance Policy
The HP Medical Archive accepts associations for the purpose of storing images in its database, performing
query/retrieve operations, and storage commitment on previously-stored images.
The AE Titles allowed to connect to the HP Medical Archive are limited to those configured in the
HP Medical Archive Application Entities table.
Real-World Activity – Respond to C-ECHO Request from an External Entity
The HP Medical Archive accepts associations from entities wishing to verify that the HP Medical Archive is
alive using the C-ECHO command.
Associated Real-World Activity
The associated real-world activity is the reception of a C-ECHO request from an external entity.
Real-World Activity – Storage Request from an External Entity
The HP Medical Archive accepts associations from external entities wishing to store images using the
1. 2. 8 4 0 .10 0 0 8.1.1D I C O M Im p l i c i t V R
Presentation Context Acceptance Criteria
The HP Medical Archive accepts the Verification SOP class listed in Table 6. The HP Medical Archive
defines no limit on the number of presentation contexts accepted.
Transfer Syntax Selection Policies
The HP Medical Archive supports the Implicit VR Little Endian Transfer Syntax.
Associated Real-World Activity
The associated real-world activity is the storage of the image in the archive. The data set of the C-STORE
command is stored with no changes. The HP Medical Archive issues a failure status if it is unable to store
the image in the archive or add it to the database.

The HP Medical Archive provides the FIND and MOVE SOP classes listed in Table 2 on page 11. It
supports single value matching, universal matching, wild card matching, and the list of UID matching.
Query/Retrieve returns one of the following status codes in a C-FIND response:
• A900 (Identifier does not match SOP Class) – a request was made for something that did not match the
specified SOP Class
• C000 (Unable to process) – request cannot be processed
• FE00 (Matching terminated due to Cancel Request) – requester cancelled operation

• 0000 (Success) – matching is complete
• FF00 (Pending) – matches are continuing and current match is supplied
• FF01 (Pending) – matches are continuing but one or more Optional Keys were not supported
Query/Retrieve returns one of the following status codes in a C-MOVE response:
• A701 (Out of Resources) – number of matches cannot be determined due to system failure
• A702 (Out of Resources) – C-STORE sub-operations cannot be performed
• A801 (Move destination unknown) – application entity named in request is unknown to Query/Retrieve
AE
• A900 (Identifier does not match SOP Class) – a request was made for something that did not match the
specified SOP Class
• C000 (Unable to process) – request cannot be processed
• FE00 (Matching terminated due to Cancel Request) – requester canceled operation
• B000 (Sub-operations complete) – a warning indicating all sub-operations are complete, but one or
more failures or warnings have occurred
• 0000 (Success) – matching is complete; no failures
• FF00 (Pending) – sub-operations are continuing
In response to a C-MOVE request, the HP Medical Archive supports the Storage SOP classes listed in
Table1 on page9.
Presentation Context Acceptance Criteria
The HP Medical Archive accepts any number of query SOP classes listed in Table 8 on page 23, and
defines no limit on the number of presentation contexts accepted.
Transfer Syntax Selection Policy
The HP Medical Archive supports only the Implicit VR Little Endian transfer syntax. Any proposed
presentation context that does not include the Implicit VR Little Endian transfer syntax is rejected.
Real-World Activity – Storage Commitment Request from an External Entity
The HP Medical Archive accepts associations from external entities requiring a commitment for safekeeping
of images stored on the grid.
Associated Real-World Activity
The application entity requiring a storage commitment sends an N-ACTION request to the HP Medical
Archive. The N-ACTION request for the Storage Commitment Push Model specifies a list of images
previously stored on the HP Medical Archive. The HP Medical Archive sends the N-ACTION response
message with the status value set to SUCCESS, checks that all images exist in the archive, and sends an
N-EVENT-REPORT request to the peer application.
The N-EVENT-REPORT request specifies a list of all images the peer application entity is inquiring about,
and which can be retrieved from the requesting entity. An additional list in the N-EVENT-REPORT request
references all images the HP Medical Archive does not have stored in its archive.
In a case where the SCU sends a storage commitment request, then immediately drops the association, the
HP Medical Archive can send a request to establish an association to the SCU in order to send an
N-EVENT-REPORT.
Presentation Context Table
Table 18 shows the presentation contexts that can be supported by the HP Medical Archive for storage
commitment operations, but may not be enabled.

5Configuration
Overview
Each HP Medical Archive stores initial provisioning configuration information locally, and obtains updated
configurations from the software’s Network Management System.
General Parameters
The DICOM application entity title for the HP Medical Archive is HPMA_DICOM and the port number is
5104. The following parameters may be configured at provisioning time or during maintenance:
• Outbound Association Inactivity Timeout – default is 2 minutes before an A-ABORT is sent and the
association is closed.
• Inbound Association Inactivity Timeout – default is 10 minutes before an A-ABORT is sent and the
association is closed.
• Supported DICOM Tags – tags to be extracted from the DICOM headers and indexed so they can later
be used in queries. The minimal set of tags required to support DICOM query/retrieve are always
enabled.
• Maximum number of concurrent outgoing associations to the same AE. Default value is 1.
• Maximum PDU size to be used when accepting associations. Default value is 16384.
Application Entities
For each defined application entity, the following information is provided:
• Calling application entity title.
• IP Address / Range.
• Port for associations to application entity.
• List of permitted interactions.
• Maximum number of concurrent outgoing associations from the archive to the application entity (default
value is 1).
• Disallowed SOP Class List – optional list of SOP Classes the HP Medical Archive does not accept if a
presentation context is found with a matching abstract syntax.
• Required and Preferred Transfer Syntax – optional set of two transfer syntaxes. To be accepted, a
presentation context must contain the required transfer syntax (or Implicit VR Little Endian Transfer
Syntax). If the required transfer syntax (or VR Little Endian) is in the presentation context (or in any other
presentation context with a matching abstract syntax), then the preferred transfer syntax is accepted.
• The application entity title for the HP Medical Archive (default is “HPMA_DICOM”) is a configurable
item. The grid can use a different application entity title when performing interactions with a specific
entity in the configuration table.
