-The Offline-Media Application Entity exports DICOM images and Presentation States to a CD-R Storage medium. It is associated with the local real-world activity “Export Images”. “Export Images” is performed upon user request.

3.1.2Functional Definition of AEs

3.1.3Sequencing of Real World Activities

At least one image or presentation state must exist and be selected before the Offline-Media Application Entity can be invoked. The Offline-Media Application Entity is invoked through the local real-world activity “Export Images”.

The operator must insert a new (blank) CD-R media before invocation of the Offline-Media Application Entity. If no CD-R is inserted, the Offline-Media Application Entity will prompt for a media to be inserted before starting to write to the CD-R device. The export job can be canceled from the job queue by clicking “Cancel” on this prompt.

Processed Images are exported in standard DICOM format. A Dicom Viewer is burned with the images on the CD, to view these images later on. The images can be read by any Dicom Compatible application. Export to a hard disk is NOT supported by "Workstation".
