| 3 Supported DICOM images | |
| 4 ====================== | |
| 5 | |
| 6 Orthanc can **receive/store/send** any kind of standard DICOM files | |
| 7 (cf. the `DICOM conformance statement | |
| 8 <https://bitbucket.org/sjodogne/orthanc/src/default/Resources/DicomConformanceStatement.txt>`__). | |
| 9 | |
| 10 However, its core engine is not able to **render** all of them as PNG | |
| 11 images. An image that Orthanc cannot decode is displayed as | |
| 12 "Unsupported" by Orthanc Explorer. Currently, the core engine of | |
| 13 Orthanc can decode: | |
| 14 | |
| 15 * uncompressed (raw) DICOM files, | |
| 16 * JPEG DICOM files, and | |
| 17 * JPEG-LS DICOM files. | |
| 18 | |
| 19 The supported photometric interpretations are: | |
| 20 | |
| 21 * RGB, | |
| 22 * Grayscale2. | |
| 23 | |
| 24 The Orthanc core supports from 8bpp to 16bpp depth, with integer | |
| 25 values. Multiframe (notably cine), uncompressed DICOM instances can | |
| 26 also be displayed from Orthanc Explorer. | |
| 27 | |
| 28 Other type of encodings are available in the `Web viewer plugin | |
| 29 <http://www.orthanc-server.com/static.php?page=web-viewer>`__, that | |
| 30 mostly supports whatever is supported by the well-known `GDCM toolkit | |
| 31 <http://sourceforge.net/projects/gdcm/>`__ by Mathieu Malaterre. Note | |
| 32 that multiframe (notably cine) DICOM instances are currently not | |
| 33 supported by the Web viewer plugin. It is also planned to create a | |
| 34 `plugin to extend the image formats <https://trello.com/c/MAh6vIXF>`__ | |
| 35 that are supported by the Orthanc core. |
