DICOM Conformance Statement 1. INTRODUCTION

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 AUDIENCE
This document is prepared for hospital staff, medical device suppliers and software engineers/implementers, presuming
they are familiar with DICOM Standard.

1.2 REMARKS
First of all, it should be noted that DICOM Standard itself does not guarantee interoperability of medical devices.
However, it allows with ease, implementing first validity verification of interoperating medical devices that support the
same DICOM Services.
“Conformance Statement” is prepared to help networking “ImagePilot” to other DICOM devices, and it is presumed that
the reader reads this document while referring to other documents describing DICOM Standard as well.

3. SUPPORT OF CHARACTER SETS


Following expanded character set is supported.
Default Single-byte Character Sets
• ISO-IR6     (ISO 646)   default
• ISO-IR100   (ISO 8859-1)
Default Multi-byte Character Sets
• ISO-IR13   (JIS X 0201)

4. SECURTIY
ImagePilot does not support special security measures presuming the system is protected by the institute’s security measures.

4.1 ASSOCIATION LEVEL SECURRIY


In the process of each DICOM Service provided by ImagePilot, checks on Calling AE Title, Called AE Title and
Application Contexts are made depending on its contents. Doing so helps protect from illegal access from AE that is not
set in configuration.
