DICOM Migration Control Center

PACS & DICOM Data Migration Software

DMCC by Globalcare gives migration teams a controlled way to inventory, migrate, monitor and document medical imaging data as it moves between PACS and DICOM archives.

Built for controlled migration

More than moving DICOM files

A PACS migration is an operational programme: teams must know what is in scope, control how work runs, recover from exceptions and retain evidence of the outcome. DMCC brings these activities into one purpose-built control centre.

Inventory and job preparation

Query the source PACS, create a study-level inventory and prepare controlled migration work before transfer begins.

Controlled DICOM migration

Run PACS-to-PACS migration using established DICOM Query/Retrieve operations, including C-FIND and C-MOVE workflows.

Recovery and exception control

Identify failed work, retry or resume migration items, skip selected studies and stop selected operations when intervention is required.

Live operational visibility

Track queued, running, completed, failed and skipped work through dashboards and detailed operational views.

Runtime and throughput control

Configure schedules and operating limits to balance migration progress with PACS and network capacity.

Reports and evidence

Generate migration reports and evidence bundles that support review, reconciliation, troubleshooting and project acceptance.

Four-step workflow

From PACS connection to migration evidence

01

Connect

Configure and test the source and destination PACS using their AE Titles, network addresses and DICOM ports.

02

Discover

Use DICOM C-FIND to build a migration inventory and define the studies that belong in the migration scope.

03

Migrate

Create controlled jobs and initiate C-MOVE requests while monitoring progress and managing exceptions.

04

Review

Use status records, reports and evidence to review outcomes, investigate failures and support migration acceptance.

Operational control

Keep migration work visible and manageable

DMCC provides a central view of migration activity so teams can see progress, act on exceptions and produce consistent records throughout a legacy PACS replacement, archive consolidation or vendor-neutral migration.

Designed for real migration conditions

Medical imaging archives can contain years of studies, inconsistent legacy data and infrastructure with limited transfer capacity. DMCC supports phased execution, clear study-level status and controlled recovery so migration teams can make progress without losing operational visibility.

PACS replacement

Move selected DICOM studies from a legacy PACS to a replacement archive.

Archive consolidation

Coordinate migration from multiple imaging archives into a consolidated destination.

Controlled remediation

Review exceptions and apply retry, resume, skip or stop actions at study level.

Frequently asked questions

PACS and DICOM migration questions

What is DICOM data migration?

DICOM data migration is the controlled transfer of medical images and their metadata from one imaging archive to another. A migration project normally includes discovery, inventory, transfer, exception handling, monitoring and evidence that the intended studies were processed.

What is PACS migration?

PACS migration moves medical imaging data from a source Picture Archiving and Communication System to a destination PACS, VNA or other DICOM archive. It is commonly required during PACS replacement, archive consolidation or infrastructure modernisation.

What is DMCC?

DMCC stands for DICOM Migration Control Center. DMCC by Globalcare is software designed to control, monitor and document PACS and DICOM data migration work.

Does DMCC support DICOM C-FIND and C-MOVE?

Yes. DMCC uses DICOM Query/Retrieve workflows, including C-FIND for discovery and inventory and C-MOVE for controlled migration between configured DICOM systems.

How does DMCC handle failed migration work?

DMCC records study-level status and provides operational controls for reviewing failures and retrying or resuming eligible work. Selected items can also be skipped or stopped when controlled intervention is needed.

How can a PACS migration be reviewed?

DMCC provides dashboards, detailed status views, logs, reports and evidence outputs. These records support operational review, failure investigation, reconciliation activities and migration acceptance processes.

Can DMCC be demonstrated for a specific migration project?

Yes. Contact Globalcare with the source and destination PACS details, estimated archive size and project objectives to discuss a demonstration or migration assessment.
