The information necessary for the C-GET request and indication DIMSE-C primitives are conveyed in the C-GET-RQ Message. The information necessary for the C-GET response and confirmation DIMSE-C primitives are conveyed in the C-GET-RSP Message. The information necessary for the C-GET Cancel Request and Cancel Indication primitives are conveyed in the C-CANCEL-GET-RQ Message.
The C-GET-RQ Message contains fields as defined in Table 9.3-6. Each field shall conform to DICOM encoding and Value Representation as defined in PS3.5. Fields are required as specified in the C-GET service definition unless otherwise noted in Table 9.3-6. Fields not specified in the C-GET service definition but present in Table 9.3-6 are required by the DIMSE-C protocol.
