Hi Cécile,

Apparently the changes we made, fixed StudyInstanceUID and StudyID, worked as we don’t see the error “The target directory does not contain a single DICOM file” anymore. However, now I am getting the following error for all the cases that were fixed:

----------------------------------
Running now the following command: /xxx/bin/mri/uploadNeuroDB/imaging_upload_file.pl<http://imaging_upload_file.pl/> -profile prod -upload_id 20925 /yyy/AAA10001_111222_baseline.tar.gz -verbose Spool message is: The Scan for the uploadID 20925 has already been run with tarchiveID: 20738. To continue with the rest of the insertion pipeline, please run tarchiveLoader from a terminal as follows: /xxx/bin/mri/uploadNeuroDB/tarchiveLoader -globLocation -profile prod /yyy/data/tarchive/DCM_2011-08-19_ImagingUpload-9-52-PPfWPd.tar -verbose
----------------------------------

When I run the suggested command line I get the following message:

----------------------------------
$ /xxx/bin/mri/uploadNeuroDB/tarchiveLoader -globLocation -profile prod /yyy/data/tarchive/DCM_2011-08-19_ImagingUpload-9-52-PPfWPd.tar -verbose

Number of MINC files that will be considered for inserting into the database: 0

No data could be converted into valid MINC files. Localizers will not be considered!
----------------------------------

I tested the conversion of one the DICOM folder to minc and then executed mincinfo but I didn’t get any errors.

Do you know why this might be happening?

Is there an issue with the files created by LORIS in the first attempt I tried to upload these images (see uploadId 20925)?

Let me know if you need more information from my side to help overcome this issue.

Best regards,
Alfredo.

        External Email - Use Caution

Hi Alfredo,

Indeed, the StudyInstanceUID needs to have a value for the insertion pipeline to work so that could explain the no DICOM found error.

FYI - StudyInstanceUID also needs to be unique for each uploaded study otherwise insertion in the tarchive tables would fail with the error: "the study has already been uploaded"

Hope this helps,

Cécile

Dear LorisDev team,

I am batch uploading images to imaging visits using the script batch_uploads_imageuploader but for some images I get the following error:

The target directory does not contain a single DICOM file.

I had seen this error previously due to missing dicom fields like StudyID (0020,0010) and ImagePositionPatient (0020,0032). However, after checking these particular dicom fields and setting StudyID it to '0' I am still getting the same error. What other dicom fields should I check?

Is there a log where I can exactly find the error? Does the "StudyInstanceUID" need to have a value?

I'm pasting the dcmdump of a dicom at the end of this email in case this might help figuring out what is the issue.

I am using LORIS v at 20.1.1.<mailto:v at 20.1.1.>

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best regards,
Alfredo.
