###Introductin

Tool to query two PACS server and get differences between patients and related number of studies and instances Details

It can be used in two ways:

type 1: for each study on serverA search it on serverB
type 2: query serverA and serverB then search the differences 

So, using type 1 if serverB is i.e. a long term server, it could contain studies from other servers, not only from serverA; at the same time I want to know if all studies on serverA are present on serverB.

Using type 2 I want to know if the two server are equal.

It can send results by mail (useful in crontab).
