Hi,

I’ve been trying to export my segmentation object as dicom and am unable to do so.  
I am using the latest nightly build 5.7.0 and the latest SlicerRT and Quantitative Reporting plugin with all the dependencies.

I have tried to reinstall Slicer and reset the config file, but still unable to export the seg obj. Scalar volume and all other DICOM export function works

Heres the error:

Error log:

It seems that the terminology is somehow invalid. If you double-click the color for your segments, does the correct terminology appear in every case, or does it default to something?

Hi，

I checked the terminology and assigned to correct category. However this did not fix the issue. Seems the terminology was not the issue.

I check the error log and found SlicerRTimport export plugin was not detected

Error log:  
DICOM Plugin failed: module ‘modules’ has no attribute ‘dicomrtimportexport’

Traceback (most recent call last):

Is the SlicerRT import export module critical for Seg Object export? I have ensured that SlicerRT plugin has been installed and enabled. Is it possible to install the plugin from file?

Thanks
