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. |
