NAME

Orthanc - Lightweight, RESTful DICOM server for healthcare and medical research

SYNOPSIS

Orthanc [ OPTION]... [CONFIGURATION]

DESCRIPTION

Orthanc, lightweight, RESTful DICOM server for healthcare and medical research. The "CONFIGURATION" argument can be a single file or a directory. In the case of a directory, all the JSON files it contains will be merged. If no configuration path is given on the command line, a set of default parameters is used. Please refer to the Orthanc Book for the full instructions about how to use Orthanc <http://book.orthanc-server.com/>. Pay attention to the fact that the order of the options is important. Options are read left to right. In particular, options such as "--verbose" can reset the value of other log-related options that were read before. The recommended set of options to debug DICOM communications is "--verbose --trace-dicom --logfile=dicom.log"
