Executing the dcmqr utility will query specified remote Application Entity (=Query/Retrieve SCP) and optionally (s. option -destcget/-cmove) retrieve instances of matching entities. If <port> is not specified, DICOM default port 104 is assumed. If also no <host> is specified localhost is assumed. Also Storage Services can be provided (s. option -cstore) to receive retrieved instances. For receiving objects retrieved by C-MOVE in a separate association, a local listening port must be specified (s.option -L).

Sends a Series level Q/R which includes patient and other attributes using the -r option. While using the -r option, make sure not to have any overlap between any -r attributes and -q attributes. So if querying using StudyDate, make sure the command does not contain -r StudyDate or the query does not work
