This software is designed to display most medical images: MRI, CT, X-ray, and ultrasound. All versions of ezDICOM can automatically detect the format of a medical image and display it on the screen. The ezDICOM project will appeal to several groups of people:

My DICOM page lists a large number of free DICOM viewers. So what are the benefits of ezDICOM? The main benefit is that the software is easy to use, mature (stable, few if any bugs) and can view a wide range of medical images including proprietary formats as well as images in the DICOM standard. For example, In addition, most free DICOM viewers only read a small subset of the DICOM images available, while ezDICOM can view a broad range of images. In addition to DICOM images, thesoftware will automatically recognize and display Analyze, GE (LX, Genesis), Interfile, Siemens (Magnetom, Somatom) and NEMA images.

The greatest strength of ezDICOM is that it is free and open source. There are many variations of medical images 'in the wild' - many of these are poorly or incorrectly documented. By being free, ezDICOM has developed a wide user base, and this ensures the quality of the code. Thousands of people have used ezDICOM and sent in unusual and rare images, and the code is now mature and able to read virtually all the popular medical images. Therefore, the users are the most important strength of this software. It is important to acknowledge the many people who shared their images with the developers. The advantage of being open source is that programmers can modify and improve the code if they want. The project was started by Wolfgang Krug and has been expanded and maintained by Chris Rorden. Development was particularly aided by Earl F. Glynn's general programming tutorials and David Clunie's medical imaging FAQ. Special mention should also go to Jakob Scholbach (coauthored the lossless JPEG decoder), Armando Alaminos Bouza (Somatom formats), Yves Martel (various formats) and Sebastien Barre (useful suggestions).

This software is covered by the BSD open source license. You can distribute both compiled projects and the source code. However, you should also distribute the license (the compiled standalone program makes this easy: the license is built into the 'about' window). The license also notes that the software is provided 'as is', use it at your own risk. This software attempts to reproduce medical images accurately. However, it is not designed for clinical use: computer monitors can vary tremendously in image quality. All grayscale images are rendered in 256-levels of gray (this is true of all of the viewers which I know of).

Introduction. The standalone ezDICOM for windows program is a basic but useful tool for viewing medical images. This software will run on computers with Windows 95 or later and requires less than 300 Kb of disk space. To view an image, you simply drag and drop the image onto the program (or you can choose 'Open...' from the 'File' menu).

Despite the ease of use, ezDICOM has a number of powerful features. For example, you can set the brightness and contrast of an image with great precision.You can also animate images that have multiple slices (e.g. see a heart beating over time or see different depths into the brain).

Installation. To download the ezDICOM standalone application [version 1, release 24 ], shift+click here. The program is distributed as a compressed zip file - simply extract the files and double click on ezDICOM.exe. Delphi source code is also included.

DCM2JPG is a simple command-line Windows program. If you drop a file on the program it will create a JPEG version of the file (alternatively, if you name the program 'dcm2png.exe' or 'dcm2bmp.exe' it will create PNG or BMP format images). You can also call the program from the command line, to do special functions like change the image brightness or contrast (most grayscale DICOM images have much higher precision than can be saved to standard bitmap formats). Another nice feature is the ability to create nice zoomed versions of DICOM images - e.g. save a 128x128 pixel image as a 192x192 pixel bitmap (scaling is done using a bilinear-interpolation method to reduce any jaggy edges). Both a compiled program and the (ezDICOM-based) source code can be downloaded by shift+clicking here. Here is a short overview of the commands:

The basic concept is that code for ezDICOM can be included in more complicated projects. A good example is Chris Rorden's MRIcro freeware. MRIcro includes a lot of powerful features that are useful for scientists studying the brain. The casual user will find MRIcro much more difficult to use than the basic ezDICOM, but specialist will appreciate MRIcro's additional features. There are actually three versions of ezDICOM available for programmers, depending on the computer language you use. In all cases, the source code is provided, so you can either use the software as a modular unit without needing to learn about any of the details of medical imaging, or you can modify how these components work.

MicroDicom is application for primary processing and preservation of medical images in DICOM format
MicroDicom DICOM Viewer is equipped with most common tools for manipulation of DICOM images, and it has an intuitive user interface.
MicroDicom also has the advantage of being free for use and accessible to everyone for non-commercial use.

MicroDicom DICOM Viewer can export DICOM images to common graphics formats and videos. Our software can be used to convert JPEG, BMP images to DICOM images. Images can be sent to the Windows clipboard and after that paste in other applications.

We offer MicroDicom DICOM Viewer CD/DVD/USB version. This autorun package can be burned with DICOM images together on CD/DVD/USB or other external storage. Our software runs from CD/DVD on other computers without installation. Users can insert a CD and autorun will start our viewer and show images that are written on the CD. It is suited for patient CD/DVD to show DICOM images without installation.

The MPR available in MicroDicom DICOM viewer enables users to reconstruct images in various planes, including coronal, sagittal, axial, or oblique, depending on the orientation of the base images. This allows for a more comprehensive visualization of anatomical structures and enhances the diagnostic capabilities.

The local database functionality enables the import of DICOM studies from various sources such as CD/DVD discs, USB flash drives, local and network folders allowing you to store these studies directly on your local hard drive for easy future access. Additionally, you can utilize the database to organize and swiftly locate studies within your collection of DICOM files stored on the hard drive.

Series from different studies or examinations can be compared in our viewer. Images can be displayed side by side with splitting the view. You can compare images from same or different series. The images are synchronized by zoom and pan, slice position and windowing. Cross-reference lines are used to identify the relative anatomical position. Scout or reference lines indicate the position and width of each cross-sectional image.

You can use MicroDicom DICOM Viewer as PACS (Picture archiving and communication system) client. Our viewer easily can query and retrieve images from PACS locations, by using following DICOM protocols: C-ECHO, C-FIND, C-MOVE, C-GET, C-STORE. Also, you can send DICOM images to PACS servers or other computers.

Can easily print DICOM images with MicroDicom. You have to choose images from a series, how much image per page and print. Also, you can hide sensitive information from the images before printing as name of patient, age, etc.

DICOM, short for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine, revolutionizes how medical professionals handle medical images, also called DICOM images. This universal format enables viewing, storing, and sharing medical images across various locations and devices, provided they are in a DICOM format. To access these images, a specialized DICOM software also called Medical Imaging Viewer is essential. These viewers not only display the images but also manage critical patient information. They integrate seamlessly with large databases like Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS), crucial for storing and interpreting patient imaging exams alongside their personal details.

Navigating the vast sea of DICOM viewers can be overwhelming. Choices range from free software versions to premium ones, catering to learners and seasoned experts alike. Each medical image viewer comes with unique features, system requirements, and additional capabilities.
