Root Property (DicomQuery)

In This Topic

Define the type of query requested within the DICOM search hierarchies.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#
C++/CLI

'Declaration
 
Public Property Root As QueryRoot

'Usage
 
Dim instance As DicomQuery
Dim value As QueryRoot
 
instance.Root = value
 
value = instance.Root

public QueryRoot Root {get; set;}

public:
property QueryRoot Root {
   QueryRoot get();
   void set (    QueryRoot value);
}

Remarks

DICOM defines three different hierarchies for image-related Query/Retrieve operations, each of which has different semantics and allowable search levels. The allowable combinations of QueryRoot and QueryLevel are:

Root

PATIENT

STUDY

PATIENTSTUDY

Permitted Levels

PATIENT

STUDY

SERIES

IMAGE

PATIENT

In addition, to the above values, Root may be set to “WORKLIST” to indicate a Modality Worklist query, or “GP-WORKLIST” to indicate a General Purpose Worklist query, but if this is done, then a Find must be performed with a DicomDataSet parameter, as the parameters for the query DataSet are very different to those used for the other queries.

Requirements

Target Platforms: .NET CLR 4.0 or higher
