Commercial Testing & Validation

We provide commercial DICOM and IHE XDS testing & validation to other service providers at an agreed cost. The testing and validation might be required as part of a procurement or certification process.

We also help customers prepare/participate in the IHE Connectathon tests for a better result.

DICOM

Type of testing
  • Connectivity - test and check all DICOM transactions secured or unsecured
  • Data validation - make sure your data is 100% compliant with the latest DICOM standard
  • Performance and stress testing - we can create various test tools to make sure your DICOM system performs as it should under pressure
  • Tolerance testing - we can create faulty/invalid data/request to see how your system cope with such data/request
  • DICOM Web testing - DICOM web client and server tests for all Restful requests
Test tools

We use various test tools, including ones that we made, to perform all tests as required.

Standard DICOM validation tools include DVTK and David Clunie’s own validation tool.
