Patient query root

There are several attributes that you can use in the patient, study, series, and image levels of a patient query.

The following sections describe the search attributes that you can use in the levels of a patient query. Search attributes can be specified either as numeric DICOM tags or as descriptive names. Search results that are propagated by the node are always returned containing DICOM numeric tags.

Patient level

The patient level attributes that can be included in a patient query root request are described in the following table.
Attribute name Mandatory DICOM tag
PatientName No 00100010
PatientID No 00100020
IssuerofPatientID No 00100021
PatientBirthDate No 00100030
PatientSex No 00100040
The following example is a query that uses the descriptive name as the attribute tag.
<DICOM:FindMove xmins:DICOM="http://com.ibm.healthcare/DICOM">
    <QueryRoot>PATIENT</QueryRoot>
    <QueryLevel>PATIENT</QueryLevel>
    <OperationPriority>NORMAL</OperationPriority>
    <Match>
        <Attribute Tag="PatientBirthDate">19670227</Attribute>
    </Match>
    <Return>
    </Return>
</DICOM:FindMove>
The following example is the same query but using the numeric DICOM tags.
<DICOM:FindMove xmins:DICOM="http://com.ibm.healthcare/DICOM">
    <QueryRoot>PATIENT</QueryRoot>
    <QueryLevel>PATIENT</QueryLevel>
    <OperationPriority>NORMAL</OperationPriority>
