The Query/Retrieve functionality of the DICOM Network Services utility is located on the Query Retrieve SCU tab. Once you have defined a Query SCP Application Entity for one or more file source devices (as described in Defining a Machine to Be Queried), you can query the remote machine.

This section covers topics related to configuring queries and retrieving files:
Note: The Query Retrieve SCU tab is not available if you start the DICOM Network Services utility with the SYSTEM keyword.
