Description: DICOM Server Access
        ===================
        
        Dcmfetch is a python package for retrieving images from a
        `DICOM <http://medical.nema.org/>`__ server. There is no python DICOM
        network provided but the package can use command line utilies from
        either
        `dcm4che2 <http://sourceforge.net/projects/dcm4che/files/dcm4che2/>`__
        or
        `dcm4che3 <https://sourceforge.net/projects/dcm4che/files/dcm4che3/>`__
        for the network transport. In addition, bundled standalone versions of
        the required dcm4che3 tools are now included so the only mandatory
        external (non-python) dependency is a working java runtime. Further
        details on installation and use are available
        `here <docs/dcmfetch.md>`__.
        
        The DICOM server must support the dicom ``c-find`` and ``c-get``
        protocols (not just ``c-move``). This is the case for the
        `dcm4chee <https://sourceforge.net/projects/dcm4che/files/dcm4chee/>`__
        server, though several other common servers do not as yet support
        ``c-get``. In addition though, ``dcmfetch`` supports access to servers
        such as `orthanc <http://www.orthanc-server.com/>`__ using the
        ``QIDO-RS`` and ``WADO-RS`` web *REST* APIs instead.
        
        DICOM servers are identified by keys in the configuration file
        ``dcmnodes.cf``. This file encodes the server details (AET, most, port)
        together with a string representing facilities supported by the server
        (including the web API if available). This file is typically installed
        to the directory ``/etc`` on a unix system.
        
        As well as the python package ``dcmfetch`` two utilities are provided:
        ``dcmfetch`` a command line program to retrieve series and
        ``dcmfetchtool`` a
        `PyQt <https://riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/intro>`__ based
        graphical tool.
