Requirements

Basics

These instructions assume the following:

1. You are operating on a Windows platform.
   
2. Python 3.10 or later is already installed. If not, get it from the Microsoft Store.
   
3. GhostScript is installed on your machine.
4. You either have an Internet connection, or the needed external modules are already installed.
   

If these conditions are met, you can skip to Installing and Updating below.

External Modules

QAMgr requires the following Python modues, which the installer will attempt to locate:

• pydicom 2.4.4 or later
  
• tabulate 0.9.0 or later
  
• ghostscript 0.7 or later
  

If they are not found, the installer will automatically attempt to install or update them from the Internet.

If you do not have these modules in the required versions and you do not have an Internet connection, you will need to find another way to get them before using QAMgr. The easiest way to do this is to temporarily connect your machine to the Internet and then run the following command using your favorite shell (i.e., CMD, PowerShell, BASH, etc.):

pip install pydicom tabulate ghostscript -U

If this is not an option, you will need to get these modules (and Python itself if necessary) from another machine and transfer them to the target machine using, e.g., a thumb drive or a local network. Such a procedure is beyond the scope of this document, but feel free to contact me if needed.
