4.1.1. Application Data Flow<br />

For the Veradius two application entities may be distinguished: the Veradius AE and<br />

the VF Workstation AEError! Reference source not found..<br />

• The Veradius AE is responsible for all networking functionality concerning<br />

acquisitions by the Veradius. It consists of two packages (ref. Section 1): the<br />

(optional) Standard <strong>DICOM</strong> package, and the Advanced <strong>DICOM</strong> package as<br />

an optional extension to the Standard <strong>DICOM</strong> package. Using both packages<br />

the Veradius AE offers the following functionality.<br />

The operator can send a worklist query. (Get Worklist)<br />

The operator can select and perform an examination (may be scheduled per<br />

worklist), resulting in an MPPS record. Then the operator can export the<br />

acquisition images; the images in the examination may be exported as<br />

separate Secondary Capture images, as XA images, or as print job.<br />

If applicable, the Veradius AE automatically sends a Storage Commitment<br />

request for those images. (Export)<br />

In service mode the service operator can verify application level<br />

communication. (Check)<br />

• The VF Workstation AE is intended to view images. Those images may be<br />

imported from the Veradius AE, or from a foreign storage SCU.<br />

(Query/Retrieve Image)<br />

The VF Workstation AE can also be used to store images on <strong>DICOM</strong> media.<br />

(Media Interchange)<br />

The Veradius can work both on-line and off-line. Therefore MPPS data and acquired<br />

images that have to be transferred by the Veradius AE are put in a queue (so only for<br />

RWA (Export)<br />

If the Veradius is connected to the network, then all queued jobs will be executed<br />

immediately.<br />

If the Veradius is disconnected from the network, then Query/Retrieve and Worklist<br />

Queries are disabled. MPPS, storage, and print jobs will stay in the queue. When the<br />

system is connected to the network again, the user can resume the queued jobs.<br />

Then the jobs in the queue will be executed (FIFO).<br />

The networking application data flow is shown in Figure 2.Error! Reference source<br />
