| 1 What DICOM viewer is compatible with Orthanc? | |
| 2 ============================================= | |
| 3 | |
| 4 Basically, any viewer that supports :ref:`DICOM query/retrieve | |
| 5 <query-retrieve>` should be compatible with Orthanc. | |
| 6 | |
| 7 Because the Orthanc project is focused on the promotion of free | |
| 8 software for medical imaging, we cannot keep track of the list of | |
| 9 proprietary DICOM viewers that are compatible with Orthanc. Here is a | |
| 10 list of free and open-source viewers that are known to be compatible | |
| 11 with Orthanc (do not hesitate to `warn us | |
| 12 <mailto:s.jodogne@gmail.com>`__ about other compatible FOSS): | |
| 13 | |
| 14 * `Horos <http://www.horosproject.org/>`__. | |
| 15 * `Gingko CADx <http://www.ginkgo-cadx.com/>`__ (a :ref:`configuration | |
| 16 guide <ginkgo-cadx>` is available). | |
| 17 * `3D Slicer <https://www.slicer.org/>`__. | |
| 18 * `medInria <https://med.inria.fr/>`__. | |
| 19 * `Aeskulap <http://aeskulap.nongnu.org/>`__. | |
| 20 * `OsiriX <http://www.osirix-viewer.com/>`__ (note however that the | |
| 21 openness of this particular software is `currently subject to | |
| 22 discussion | |
| 23 <http://blog.purview.net/an-open-letter-to-the-osirix-community>`__). | |
| 24 | |
| 25 Make also sure to check out the following official extensions to Orthanc: | |
| 26 | |
| 27 * `Web viewer plugin <http://www.orthanc-server.com/static.php?page=web-viewer>`__. | |
| 28 * `ImageJ extension <http://www.orthanc-server.com/static.php?page=imagej>`__. | |

| 30 As far as Sébastien Jodogne is concerned, he uses the Web viewer | |
| 31 plugin and the ImageJ extension for simple analysis tasks. For more | |
| 32 intensive 3D viewing, he uses Ginkgo CADx. Finally, for advanced | |
| 33 usages (such as PET-CT fusion or contouring), he switches to 3D | |
| 34 Slicer. | |
