Previous releases:

September 2023 - vers. 1.1

A lightweight and efficient Dicom server to receive and store medical images such as CT, MRI, DX, MG, XRF, XA, NM, PET, US etc., 
as well as Structured Radiation Dose Reports (non-image SOP classes).
The application (C++ compiled) implements the Dicom Storage SCP class and runs as an automatic MS Windows service (x86/x64 platform Win 7-8-10-11).

May 2024 - vers. 1.3

New features available in this release:
- Possibility to increase the maximum number of worker threads to improve performance in case of concurrent client connections.
- An option that allows image names to be indexed based on the Dicom Image Number tag, as an alternative to the cryptic naming of the image's SOP Instance UID.
- Capability to create the DICOMDIR directory file for each study stored. 


Latest release, July 2025 - vers. 1.4

New features available in the latest release:
- It is now possible to manage a custom list of DICOM images and non-image DICOM objects, read from a configuration file. It also provides a choice of transfer syntaxes among those negotiable with the SCU client application. Without this configuration file, the storage server still works normally for a set of default Dicom SOP classes.
- A new option is available to let storing of any Structured Report file in a single folder or in a tree structure of subfolders.
- This tool attempts to intercept anomalous cases where images from different acquisitions, but belonging to the same study, are sent with the same serial number and instance index as previously stored images. A filename splitting (numbering extension) mode has been implemented to prevent overwriting during archiving.
