I hadn't been made aware of this "except" so far. This means more testing will need to be done because eventually Orthanc _does_ modify input files sometimes. Sigh. I will see whether I can manage to find out more. > which could lead to undefined behavior. Garbage in, garbage out. Sure, but so far I'd have assumed "garbage in, SAME garbage out". Note that I fully understand the desire to accept and store the garbage (as [part of] the saying goes "be liberal in what you accept"). However, it'd be helpful if there was either documentation that Orthanc does indeed sometimes modify files on its own or else if there was even a configuration option for skip improworsening of DICOM files handed out. Orthanc would be the tool of the day if it offered a REST field / DICOM tag / whatever saying "Orthanc thinks this file is broken because ..." and the web frontend would offer buttons "display original", "display fixed", "fix permanently" ;-) Yeah, I know, making suggestions is cheap... :-) Thanks for everyone's work so far, Karsten -- GPG key ID E4071346 @ eu.pool.sks-keyservers.net E167 67FD A291 2BEA 73BD 4537 78B9 A9F9 E407 1346
