pynetdicom
==========

A Python implementation of the `DICOM <https://www.dicomstandard.org>`_
networking protocol, originally based on (legacy)
`pynetdicom <https://github.com/patmun/pynetdicom_legacy>`_.


Description
-----------

`DICOM <https://www.dicomstandard.org>`_ is the international standard for
medical images and related information. It defines the formats and communication
protocols for media exchange in radiology, cardiology, radiotherapy and other
medical domains.

*pynetdicom* is a pure Python package that implements the DICOM
networking protocol. Working with
`pydicom <https://github.com/pydicom/pydicom>`_, it allows the easy creation
of DICOM *Service Class Users* (SCUs) and *Service Class Providers* (SCPs).

*pynetdicom's* main user class is
`AE <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.html>`_
and is used to represent a DICOM Application Entity. With it you can:

- Start the application as an SCP by specifying the supported presentation
  contexts then calling
  `AE.start_server() <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.html#pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.start_server>`_
  and waiting for incoming association requests
- Use the application as an SCU by specifying the presentation contexts you
  want the peer SCP to support, then requesting an association
  via the
  `AE.associate() <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.html#pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.associate>`_
  method, which returns an
  `Association <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.association.Association.html#pynetdicom.association.Association>`_
  thread.

Once associated, the services available to the association can
be used by sending
`DIMSE-C <https://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/html/part07.html#chapter_9>`_
and
`DIMSE-N <https://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/html/part07.html#chapter_10>`_
messages.

Documentation
-------------
The *pynetdicom*
`tutorials <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/tutorials/index.html>`_,
`user guide <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/user/index.html>`_,
`code examples <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/examples/index.html>`_,

With the exception of the C-ECHO service, a user-defined callable function,
*handler*, must be bound to the corresponding
`intervention event <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/user/events#intervention-events>`_
in order to complete a DIMSE service request. Events
can be imported with ``from pynetdicom import evt`` and a handler can be
bound to an event prior to starting an association through the *evt_handlers*
keyword arguments in
`AE.start_server() <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.html#pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.start_server>`_
and
`AE.associate() <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.html#pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.associate>`_.

When an event occurs the *handler* function is called and passed a single
parameter, *event*, which is an
`Event <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.events.Event.html>`_
object whose specific attributes
are dependent on the type of event that occurred. Handlers bound to
intervention events must  return or yield certain values. See the
`handler documentation <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/events>`_
for information on what attributes and properties are available in ``Event``
for each event type and the expected returns/yields for the
corresponding handlers.

Applications
------------

Some basic DICOM applications are included with *pynetdicom*:

Code Examples
-------------

More
`code examples <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/examples/index.html>`_
are available in the documentation.

Echo SCU
~~~~~~~~
Send a C-ECHO request to a Verification SCP (at TCP/IP address
*addr*, listen port number *port*):

.. code-block:: python

        from pynetdicom import AE

        ae = AE(ae_title='MY_ECHO_SCU')
        # Verification SOP Class has a UID of 1.2.840.10008.1.1
        #   we can use the UID str directly when adding the requested
        #   presentation context
        ae.add_requested_context('1.2.840.10008.1.1')

        # Associate with a peer AE
        assoc = ae.associate(addr, port)

        if assoc.is_established:
            # Send a DIMSE C-ECHO request to the peer
            status = assoc.send_c_echo()

            # Print the response from the peer
            if status:
                print('C-ECHO Response: 0x{0:04x}'.format(status.Status))

            # Release the association
            assoc.release()

Echo SCP
~~~~~~~~
Create a blocking Echo SCP on port ``11112`` (you may optionally
bind a handler to the ``evt.EVT_C_ECHO`` event if you want to return something
other than an ``0x0000`` *Success* status):

.. code-block:: python

        from pynetdicom import AE, VerificationPresentationContexts

        ae = AE(ae_title='MY_ECHO_SCP')
        # Or we can use the inbuilt VerificationPresentationContexts list,
        #   there's one for each of the supported Service Classes
        # In this case, we are supporting any requests to use Verification SOP
        #   Class in the association
        ae.supported_contexts = VerificationPresentationContexts

        # Start the SCP on (host, port) in blocking mode
        ae.start_server(("localhost", 11112), block=True)

Alternatively, you can start the SCP in non-blocking mode, which returns the
running server instance. This can be useful when you want to run a Storage SCP
and make C-MOVE requests within the same AE.

In the next example we'll create a non-blocking Verification SCP and bind a
handler for the C-ECHO service request event ``evt.EVT_C_ECHO`` that logs the
requestor's address and port number and the timestamp for the event.

.. code-block:: python

        import logging

        from pynetdicom import AE, evt, debug_logger
        from pynetdicom.sop_class import Verification

        # Setup logging to use the StreamHandler at the debug level
        debug_logger()

        ae = AE(ae_title='MY_ECHO_SCP')
        ae.add_supported_context(Verification)

        # Implement the EVT_C_ECHO handler
        def handle_echo(event, logger):
            """Handle a C-ECHO service request.

            Parameters
            ----------
            event : evt.Event
                The C-ECHO service request event, this parameter is always
                present.
            logger : logging.Logger
                The logger to use, this parameter is only present because we
                bound ``evt.EVT_C_ECHO`` using a 3-tuple.

            Returns
            -------
            int or pydicom.dataset.Dataset
                The status returned to the peer AE in the C-ECHO response.
                Must be a valid C-ECHO status value as either an ``int`` or a
                ``Dataset`` object containing an (0000,0900) *Status* element.
            """
            # Every *Event* includes `assoc` and `timestamp` attributes
            #   which are the *Association* instance the event occurred in
            #   and the *datetime.datetime* the event occurred at
            requestor = event.assoc.requestor
            timestamp = event.timestamp.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
            msg = (
                "Received C-ECHO service request from ({}, {}) at {}"
                .format(requestor.address, requestor.port, timestamp)
            )
            logger.info(msg)

            # Return a *Success* status
            return 0x0000

        # By binding using a 3-tuple we can pass extra arguments to
        #   the handler
        handlers = [(evt.EVT_C_ECHO, handle_echo, [logging.getLogger('pynetdicom')])]

        # Start the SCP in non-blocking mode
        scp = ae.start_server(("localhost", 11112), block=False, evt_handlers=handlers)

        # Associate and send a C-ECHO request to our own Verification SCP
        ae.add_requested_context(Verification)
        assoc = ae.associate('localhost', 11112)
        if assoc.is_established:
            status = assoc.send_c_echo()
            assoc.release()

        # Shutdown the SCP
        scp.shutdown()

Storage SCU
~~~~~~~~~~~
Send the DICOM *CT Image Storage* dataset in *file-in.dcm* to a peer Storage
SCP (at TCP/IP address *addr*, listen port number *port*):

.. code-block:: python

        from pydicom import dcmread
        from pydicom.uid import ImplicitVRLittleEndian

        from pynetdicom import AE, VerificationPresentationContexts

        ae = AE(ae_title='MY_STORAGE_SCU')
        # We can also do the same thing with the requested contexts
        ae.requested_contexts = VerificationPresentationContexts
        # Or we can use inbuilt objects like CTImageStorage.
        # The requested presentation context's transfer syntaxes can also
        #   be specified using a str/UID or list of str/UIDs
        ae.add_requested_context(CTImageStorage,

It defines the formats and communication\nprotocols for media exchange in radiology, cardiology, radiotherapy and other\nmedical domains.\n\n*pynetdicom* is a pure Python package that implements the DICOM\nnetworking protocol. Working with\n`pydicom <https://github.com/pydicom/pydicom>`_, it allows the easy creation\nof DICOM *Service Class Users* (SCUs) and *Service Class Providers* (SCPs).\n\n*pynetdicom's* main user class is\n`AE <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.html>`_\nand is used to represent a DICOM Application Entity. With it you can:\n\n- Start the application as an SCP by specifying the supported presentation\n  contexts then calling\n  `AE.start_server() <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.html#pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.start_server>`_\n  and waiting for incoming association requests\n- Use the application as an SCU by specifying the presentation contexts you\n  want the peer SCP to support, then requesting an association\n  via the\n  `AE.associate() <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.html#pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.associate>`_\n  method, which returns an\n  `Association <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.association.Association.html#pynetdicom.association.Association>`_\n  thread.\n\nOnce associated, the services available to the association can\nbe used by sending\n`DIMSE-C <https://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/html/part07.html#chapter_9>`_\nand\n`DIMSE-N <https://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/html/part07.html#chapter_10>`_\nmessages.\n\nDocumentation\n-------------\nThe *pynetdicom*\n`tutorials

Events\ncan be imported with ``from pynetdicom import evt`` and a handler can be\nbound to an event prior to starting an association through the *evt_handlers*\nkeyword arguments in\n`AE.start_server() <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.html#pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.start_server>`_\nand\n`AE.associate() <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.html#pynetdicom.ae.ApplicationEntity.associate>`_.\n\nWhen an event occurs the *handler* function is called and passed a single\nparameter, *event*, which is an\n`Event <https://pydicom.github.io/pynetdicom/stable/reference/generated/pynetdicom.events.Event.html>`_\nobject whose specific attributes\nare dependent on the type of event that occurred. Handlers bound to\nintervention events must  return or yield certain values.
