Versions:
Charrua TestSCU 1.0 is a lightweight, Windows-based diagnostic utility published by CharruaSoft that enables radiology IT staff, PACS administrators, and software developers to verify every layer of DICOM connectivity without installing a full PACS station. Acting as a standards-compliant Service Class User, the program offers five distinct diagnostic modules: Echo-Verification for immediate C-ECHO testing, Store for pushing single or batch image datasets, Query-Find for C-FIND validation, Query-Worklist for modality worklist lookups, and Print for direct DICOM hard-copy output. Complementing these core functions are three satellite tools: SendSCU, a folder-to-server bulk image transmitter; PrintSCU, a command-line JPEG/Bitmap sender aimed at laser film printers; WatchDog, an automated monitor that issues C-ECHO heartbeats to pre-configured hosts and dispatches e-mail alerts when any node stops responding; and Lite Viewer, a minimal DICOM viewer intended for inclusion on patient CD/DVD media, providing zoom, pan, window/level, and measurement capabilities so recipients can inspect studies on any Windows PC. Together the components cover the most common interoperability pain points encountered during PACS deployment, software regression testing, or routine maintenance, making Charrua TestSCU 1.0 a practical addition to the “Health & Science / DICOM & Medical Imaging” category. Only one version (1.0) has been released to date, and the entire suite is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads delivered through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always supplying the latest build and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
