Medical Image Viewing Control: A Feature-rich, lightweight software component for building teleradiology and medical image viewing solutions

Aware’s AccuRad DICOMView medical image viewing control is a lightweight ActiveX component that can be quickly and easily integrated into medical image viewing applications, or used to build a sophisticated browser-based image viewer. The control may be used in Microsoft Internet Explorer-based web applications or in any ActiveX container application.

The control includes a customizable context menu with tools commonly used when working with and manipulating images, including zoom, rotate, pan, and scroll. Also included are medical imaging specific features such as window/level, magnify, cine-loop, scout lines, anatomical linking, and more. The control also provides a scripting API that allows developers to customize the menus or build their own interfaces to access the tools and drive the Control’s functionality.

Key Features

AccuRad DICOMView Networking AND JPIP
AccuRad DICOMView incorporates the JPEG 2000 Interactive Protocol (JPIP) as one option for network communications. JPIP, part 9 of the ISO/IEC JPEG2000 standard (ISO/IEC 15444:9), and now a transfer syntax in DICOM, provides for standards-based image streaming over HTTP. When used with JPIP, the DICOMView control requests only those portions of a JPEG2000 image required for viewing. This functionality results in an improvement in bandwidth efficiency and response time when performing certain image viewing tasks in a web-based or remote environment. JPIP has the simultaneous effect of reducing both server and client storage and processing requirements. In addition, the control may be used to display images from a networked storage device, a LAN location, or an HTTP URL independently of JPIP.

DICOMView supports several file and compression formats, including DICOM transfer syntaxes such as JPEG2000, Raw, JPEG, and Lossless JPEG. The Control is multi-threaded, and designed to work well with large sets of images and volumetric data.
