NOTE:
DICOM setup options.
1. From iCAT Vision select Tools > Setup.
2. Under DICOM Database Root Folder, browse to the iCAT
Vision\ iCAT Vision Root and click OK.
(This may be on the C: drive or on a networked drive).
Setup is the same on all networked and non-networked
computers or workstations.
3. A prompt to restart iCATVision software is displayed, click OK.
It is currently recommended that when using iCAT Data for

3 party software, perform a separate DICOM export from iCAT
The data will be interchangeable when third party systems start
accepting compressed DICOM.
iCATTransfer is not required for iCAT
NOTE:
iCATVision is restricted to iCAT
"authentication" of DICOM data (Digital Imaging
Communications). Authentication is performed by a program called
"iCATTransfer" which is installed and executed on the iCAT
Acquisition Computer (computer capturing the scan) or another
computer on the same network, in special cases. iCATTransfer
authenticates and stores all newly exported DICOM data (from
®
iCAT software, to the Watch folder, and then to the Image Root
folder.) The Image Root folder typically resides on a server or
another central storage location.
If the computers are on the same network as the iCATTransfer, then
there is direct access to the patient images. If running outside this
network (e.g. a referring doctor's office), then patient data may be
transferred via a CD to the remote computer's Image Root folder.
To reiterate, iCATVision only accepts iCAT
authenticated by iCATTransfer. Images from iCAT
Systems do not require iCATTransfer.
