# Industrial Specification: Message Parser

## 1. Technical Definition
A software component that interprets and extracts structured data from DICOM protocol messages.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **1-1000 messages/second at 1-100 MB/message size**. Failure boundary: **Message parsing latency exceeding 500 ms or memory usage exceeding 2 GB RAM**, Mechanism: **Computational resource exhaustion due to buffer overflow or thread starvation when processing DICOM messages with embedded pixel data exceeding 512×512×16-bit resolution**.

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Malformed DICOM header with incorrect transfer syntax UID (1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.50) | 8 | Parser segmentation fault during SOP Class UID validation | Implement ASN.1 BER/DER syntax validation with 32-byte lookahead buffer before full message processing |
| Network packet fragmentation causing incomplete DICOM Data Set (missing 0xFFFC,0xFFFC Item Delimitation) | 8 | Infinite loop in sequence parsing at 0x0008,0x2112 decomposition | Apply TCP reassembly timeout of 150 ms and sequence length validation against DICOM Part 5 Table A.1 limits |

## 3. Key Technical Parameters
| Parameter | Value | Unit | Status |

- **Caution**: 
- **Caution**: 
- **Caution**: 

### Q: What is the primary function of the Message Parser in medical imaging systems?
**A**: The Message Parser interprets DICOM protocol messages to extract structured data, enabling seamless communication between medical imaging devices and healthcare information systems.

### Q: How does the Syntax Decoder BOM component work with the Message Parser?
**A**: The Syntax Decoder analyzes DICOM message syntax to identify data elements, which the Message Parser then processes to extract and structure the relevant information for system integration.

### Q: What industries benefit from integrating this DICOM Message Parser?
**A**: Computer, electronic, and optical product manufacturers in medical imaging, particularly those producing CT scanners, MRI machines, and digital radiography systems requiring DICOM protocol compliance.
