Destination Conditions

A condition is an expression to apply to a given tag. An expression is a programming language that allows you to return a value or an object according to a certain condition. In this case, the value returned is always a Boolean (True/False).

You can use some constants defined in an expression.

#Tag is a constant that permit to access to the all tag integer value in the DICOM standard. Example, #Tag.StudyDescription allow to access to the integer value of tag (0008,1030).
#VR is a constant that permit to access tho the all VR value in the DICOM standard. Example, #VR.LO is the Long String type.

The list of functions available to create your conditions are listed below. Beware all these functions are case sensitive.

tagValueIsPresent(int tag, String value) or tagValueIsPresent(String tag, String value)

This function will retrieve the tag value of the DICOM and checks if the value given is the same as the tag value.

# Check if the study description is "755523-st222-GE"
tagValueIsPresent(#Tag.StudyDescription, "755523-st222-GE")
tagValueIsPresent("0008,1030", "755523-st222-GE")

# Check if the study description is not "755523-st222-GE"
!tagValueIsPresent(#Tag.StudyDescription, "755523-st222-GE")
!tagValueIsPresent("0008,1030", "755523-st222-GE")

tagValueContains(int tag, String value) or tagValueContains(String tag, String value)

This function will retrieve the tag value of the DICOM and checks if the value given appear in the tag value.

# Check if the study description contains "st222"
tagValueContains(#Tag.StudyDescription, "st222")
tagValueContains("0008,1030", "st222")

# Check if the study description not contains "st222"
!tagValueContains(#Tag.StudyDescription, "st222")
!tagValueContains("0008,1030", "st222")

tagValueBeginsWith(int tag, String value) or tagValueBeginsWith(String tag, String value)

This function will retrieve the tag value of the DICOM and checks if the tag value begins with the value

# Check if the study description begins with "755523"
tagValueBeginsWith(#Tag.StudyDescription, "755523")
tagValueBeginsWith("0008,1030", "755523")

# Check if the study description not begins with "755523"
!tagValueBeginsWith(#Tag.StudyDescription, "755523")
!tagValueBeginsWith("0008,1030", "755523")

tagValueEndsWith(int tag, String value) or tagValueEndsWith(String tag, String value)

This function will retrieve the tag value of the DICOM and checks if the tag value ends with the value

# Check if the study description end with "GE"
tagValueEndsWith(#Tag.StudyDescription, "GE")
tagValueEndsWith("0008,1030", "GE")

# Check if the study description not end with "GE"
!tagValueEndsWith(#Tag.StudyDescription, "GE")
!tagValueEndsWith("0008,1030", "GE")

tagIsPresent(int tag) or tagIsPresent(String tag)

This function will check if the tag given is present in the DICOM.

# Check if the tag study description is present in the DICOM file
tagIsPresent(#Tag.StudyDescription)
tagIsPresent("0008,1030")

# Check if the tag study description is not present in the DICOM file
!tagIsPresent(#Tag.StudyDescription)
!tagIsPresent("0008,1030")

You can combine multiple conditions with a logical operator.

&& is the AND

|| is the OR

# Check if the tag study description end with "GE" and if the station name is "CT1234"
tagValueEndsWith(#Tag.StudyDescription, "GE") && tagValueContains(#Tag.StationName, "CT1234")

# Check if the tag study description end with "GE" or if the station name is "CT1234"
tagValueEndsWith(#Tag.StudyDescription, "GE") || tagValueContains(#Tag.StationName, "CT1234")
