Expand description
orthanc-rs is a client for the REST API of Orthanc, an open-source, lightweight DICOM server.
To use the crate, add the dependency to your Cargo.toml
:
[dependencies]
orthanc = "0.8.0"
§Usage
Create an API client instance:
use orthanc::Client;
let client = Client::new("http://localhost:8042");
If authentication is enabled on the Orthanc instance:
client.auth("username", "password");
List patients:
client.patients();
Or in an expanded format:
client.patients_expanded();
Get all DICOM tags of an instance:
let instance_id = "0b62ebce-8ab7b938-e5ca1b05-04802ab3-42ee4307";
let tags = client.instance_tags(instance_id);
println!("{}", tags["PatientID"]);
Download a study:
let study_id = "9357491d-427a6c94-4080b6c8-1997f4aa-af658240";
let mut file = fs::File::create("/tmp/study.zip").unwrap();
client.study_dicom(study_id, &mut file).unwrap();
Even though the operation is not very efficient, Orthanc allows uploading DICOM files over REST API:
let data = fs::read("/tmp/instance.dcm").unwrap();
client.upload(&data).unwrap();
