API Token Generation

Get A Launch URL

AdvaPACS provides an API that can be used to return a fully formed URL to launch a particular study or studies in MedDream.

The returned URL can then be simply launched in a web browser to display the images.

As a prerequisite, an AdvaPACS API key must be generated with the Generate MedDream Token permission.

Provide the Access Key ID and Access Key Secret via the Authorization header of the HTTP request in this format:

Authorization: ID=<Access Key ID>,Secret=<Access Key Secret>

For example:

Authorization: ID=991004a2dfb04faead9e30e0eb66e186,Secret=XzzxHuSfPm76PVNSd+v1Sk69yb+YGtDlc

POST https://<region>.api.integration.advapacs.com/viewer/launch

The request shall have a JSON body.

To launch via a combination of Patient ID and Accession Number(s)

{
  "viewer": "meddream",
  "patientId": "ABC123",
  "accessionNumber": ["1", "2", "3"],
  "username": "example.user"
}

To launch via Study Instance UID(s)

{
  "viewer": "meddream",
  "studyInstanceUid": ["1.2.3"],
  "username": "example.user"
}

note

The username must be a valid AdvaPACS username with permission to access MedDream.
