Image Data Saving

If the database has been configured the Database entry is available in the list of output image formats. Image saving can be either done from the Menu of a PMOD tool,

File Save Database

or using a Save button.

Save Database Button

The Save button must be configured to the Database format beforehand using the arrow on right indicated in red.

Save Format Selection

Saving to the database brings up a dialog

Save Database Dialog

which is very similar to the dialog for saving images in DICOM part 10 files or C-STORE to a DICOM server. The distinctions are, that a target database must be selected rather than an output directory or a DICOM server, and the Output SOP is missing. The reason is that images are always saved as Recon Gated Tomo NM DICOM objects which allow efficient loading of large dynamic data sets (see DICOM Conformance Statement for details). Note the Edit Info button for adding/changing descriptive information.
