Research PACS on AWS

[Nicolas Malaval]

Hello,

I just wanted to share with this community a project that I just open-sourced: https://github.com/aws-samples/research-pacs-on-aws

This solution facilitates researchers' access to medical images collected during the course of clinical care. It automatically removes potentially identifying information based on rules you define, and exposes a self-service portal where researchers can browse, search and export medical images to Amazon S3.

It uses Orthanc to ingest images from the clinical PACS, stores images using the Cloud Object Storage plugin for Amazon S3, and do some processing like decoding or transcoding. Besides Orthanc, the solution mostly consists on Python code running in Docker containers.

Feel free to share feedback either here or in Github.

Dear Nicolas,

Many thanks for working on this project!

I've just indexed it on the dedicated "OrthancContributed" GitHub repository:
