.decimal Dicom Receiver

A Windows computer must be used to run the AE Title programs. Our current configuration uses a standard Windows 7 Professional PC that automatically logs in with a default user upon startup and the DICOM receiver is included in the computer startup folder. Any setup that ensures the receiver is always running should be sufficient however.

Packages required to run:

   python -m pip install requests

Installation
