Redirect WADO URI Requests - dcm4che/dcm4chee-arc-light GitHub Wiki

Overview

Enable redirection of WADO URI requests for unavailable objects in archive to an external archive.

Configuration

Create a Remote Application Entity for an external archive and also create Web Application referencing WADO_URI as Web Service Class. The Web Service Path shall reflect the URL path of WADO-URI service used by the external archive.

Alternatively, if the second archive is also an instance of DCM4CHEE archive, then one may just clone the original archive device dcm4chee-arc and change the AET in the Web Service Path and the associated AE Title field in the cloned Web Applications.

Using Archive UI

This feature may be configured on :

Archive Device level - to redirect WADO-URI requests for unavailable objects received by any Application Entity of the Archive :

Go to Menu -> Configuration -> Devices -> dcm4chee-arc -> Device Extension -> Archive Device Extension.

Application Entity level - to redirect WADO-URI requests for unavailable objects received by this Application Entity of the Archive

Go to Menu -> Configuration -> Devices -> dcm4chee-arc -> Child Objects -> DCM4CHEE -> Network AE Extension -> Archive Network AE Extension.

Set Fallback WADO-URI Web Application Name as the web application name (having WADO-URI as Web Service Class) of external archive. Also set a Fallback WADO-URI HTTP Status Code. By default this is set to 303. Valid values are 301, 302, 303 and 307. Save this configuration.

Using LDAP

One may either create a LDIF file to add attributes either on :

Archive Device level (e.g.):

  version: 1
  dn: dicomDeviceName=dcm4chee-arc,cn=Devices,cn=DICOM Configuration,dc=dcm4che,dc=org
  changetype: modify
  add: dcmFallbackWadoURIWebAppName
  dcmFallbackWadoURIWebAppName: DCM4CHEE-WADO_CLONE
          
  dn: dicomDeviceName=dcm4chee-arc,cn=Devices,cn=DICOM Configuration,dc=dcm4che,dc=org
  changetype: modify
  add: dcmFallbackWadoURIHttpStatusCode
  dcmFallbackWadoURIHttpStatusCode: 301

Archive AE level (e.g.):

  version: 1
  dn: dicomAETitle=DCM4CHEE,dicomDeviceName=dcm4chee-arc,cn=Devices,cn=DICOM Configuration,dc=dcm4che,dc=org
  changetype: modify
  add: dcmFallbackWadoURIWebAppName
  dcmFallbackWadoURIWebAppName: DCM4CHEE-WADO_CLONE
          
  dn: dicomAETitle=DCM4CHEE,dicomDeviceName=dcm4chee-arc,cn=Devices,cn=DICOM Configuration,dc=dcm4che,dc=org
  changetype: modify
  add: dcmFallbackWadoURIHttpStatusCode
  dcmFallbackWadoURIHttpStatusCode: 301

and import it to the LDAP Server by using the ldapmodify command line utility.

OR use the Add Attribute... and Add Value... function of Apache Directory Studio to add attributes on Device Level (e.g.: dicomDeviceName=dcm4chee-arc) or on Application Entity Level (e.g: dicomAETitle=DCM4CHEE) of the Archive Configuration.

One may refer to Archive Device or Archive Network AE to understand the description of attributes.

Testing

Select an object on archive 2. Note here in the WADO-URI service URL that host, port and AET are that of archive 1 whereas StudyIUID, SeriesIUID and SOPIUID are of the DICOM object on archive 2.

curl -v -L 'http://localhost:8080/dcm4chee-arc/aets/DCM4CHEE/wado?requestType=WADO&studyUID=1.2.840.113674.1118.54.200&seriesUID=1.2.840.113674.1118.54.180.300&objectUID=1.2.840.113674.950809132646154.100&contentType=image/jpeg&frameNumber=1' > image.jpeg

As the object is not found in archive 1, the request is redirected to archive 2. This can be seen as follows :

For redirection of WADO-URI requests using secured archives, ensure that either the two archives are connected to the same Keycloak or if they are connected to different Keycloaks then they shall be synchronized. Refer Cluster Keycloak with MariaDB and LDAP using Docker Standalone
