Search on any TCP Port: When enabled, the DICOM dissector will parse all TCP packets not handled by any other dissector and look for an association request.

It can export captured DICOM objects as filesĬurrently, the biggest issue is still the proper reassembly of more than one PDU.

It decodes all tags defined in the standard 2008.

Starting with Wireshark 1.2.1, the DICOM dissector has many new features.

SampleCaptures/DICOM_C-ECHO-echoscu.pcap.

Keep this file short, it's also a good idea to gzip it to make it even smaller, as Wireshark can open gzipped files automatically. XXX - Add a simple example capture file to the SampleCaptures page and link from here (see below). The accepted or rejected presentation contexts are decoded, to quickly identify negotiation issues. The well known TCP port for DICOM traffic is 104.įollowing screenshot shows a DICOM communication containing a C-ECHO followed by C-STORE request.

TCP: Typically, DICOM uses TCP as its transport protocol.

For more information about the history, please refer to & Protocol dependencies Previous standards did not include network support. HistoryĭICOM is the third version of a standard developed by American College of Radiology (ACR) and National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) and was released in 1993. using a DICOM editor, apply the necessary care, as far as the interpretation of the results go. For certain network captures, the different PDUs are not resembled in the correct order, i.e. The exported file are solely for data and communication interpretation purposes, and the implementation does not claim to be a reference. Wireshark is not a Medical Device and therefore exported files MUST NOT be used for any clinical processes. This page will focus on wireshark specific topics. Wikipedia has a very good high level description about DICOM and the protocol specifications can be found at the DICOM Homepage. Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM)
