FAQ1) Which light Windows compatible DICOM Viewer should I burn on DICOM CDs?Try K-PACS, available here:The easiest way to get all required files is to install K-PACS on a Windows Computer, import a DICOM file into the local database (FILESYSTEM tabulator), select this newly imported study and click 'EXPORT'. Select 'Burn on CD' and then 'create CD project'.Place all '.dll' ('dicomdll.dll', 'iq.dll', 'dcmtk.dll') and '.exe' ('K-PACS-Lite.exe') files of the CD project's folder in the root directory of your OSIRIX patient CD.2) Why I cannot open a 2,000 images series with my 8-GB MacPro?The base version of OsiriX is a 32-bit application that can address only 4-GB. Buy the 64-bit extension and you will be able to use all the ram you want.O3) I can Query a DICOM node, but I cannot Retrieve. Why?To Query a DICOM node, you have to add his parameters in the Locations View of the Preferences. But to Query & Retrieve a DICOM node, you also have to add the parameters of your OsiriX DICOM workstation on the DICOM nodes list of the PACS (AETitle, IP Address and Port Number). Contact the PACS IT manager to add these parameters. These parameters can be found in the Listener View of the Preferences.
Pacs Dicom Viewer is a free, vendor-neutral PACS browser and DICOM viewer. Pacs Dicom Viewer can browse any standard PACS server that support C-GET, C-MOVE or WADO protocol to download and view DICOM images. Also, it supports simple Dicom viewer. As it utilizes some functions in SPM8, SPM8 should be installed and its path should be included to MATLAB path. A 64bit environment with more than 8GB RAM is required for DICOV (MAC OSX is recommended.). Dicom is unified medical image format, but there're some variability across the imaging systems.
Warning: port 104 requires root access on MacOS: you cannot receive communications on this port. You should prefer port 11112.
Be sure that you didn't activate the Firewall on your Mac: go to System Preferences / Sharing / Firewall, and Stop it if it was activated. Each AETitle should be unique, if not, Query & Retrieve can fail (C-Move SCU/SCP).4) I'm searching an open-source PACS Server software that runs on Mac hardware. What do you recommend?Try DCM4CHEE.
For a step-by-step installation, visit:5) I cannot retrieve Images via VPN 2Mbit SDSL. The errormessage is 'MoveFailed: RefusedOutOfResourcesSubOerations'. Firewalls are turned off. Parameters in preferences are correct.
What is wrong?Check that you are not using a port below 4000. Recommend 4444, 4096 or 11112. Check that your computer (AETitle, address and port) is correctly saved in the PACS server.
It requires a FIXED IP.6) When I insert a DICOM CD, I can see the images, but when I eject the CD the images disappear. How can I put and save the images in the database?You can automatically copy the images in the database when inserting a DICOM CD.

And replace the corrupted database with the new file.
Please note: There are many free DICOM viewers online, however many lack the core functionality required by a radiologist for reviewing studies and/or teaching. All software on this page has been downloaded / tested by a consultant radiologist and thought to represent the best currently available online. This page is updated regularly.Sometimes it's useful to be able to view and manipulate medical images such as X-rays, CT or MRI scans on your own PC, laptop or tablet. This is particularly important when preparing teaching files or practising for your radiology exams.
Finding a good free DICOM viewer can be tricky, especially as there are so many options out there. We have tested may different applications (so you don't have to) and the following are our best picks. We grouped them according to the operating system used because unfortunately there aren't any free viewers that run on both!
DICOM stands for 'Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine'. It is the standard for handling, storing, printing, and transmitting information in medical imaging.
DICOM viewing software allows radiology trainees and consultants to view and manipulate medical images (such as radiographs or MRI scans) on their own PC, laptop or tablet. In the hospital environment, this forms part of the picture archiving and communication system (PACS), which doctors will be familiar with!A popular software for radiologists working in the UK is currently a programme called '. This is a free open source version of the software used by the Royal College of Radiologists for the viva part of the Final FRCR 2B exam, so obviously it makes sense to use it for teaching as well. This programme is only available on Apple computers, hence why so many radiologists own MacBooks.There is a paid version of Horos called 'OsiriX MD', which is produced by Pixmeo, however it is expensive so not ideal for basic teaching purposes, although has great functionality.
Pixemo also produce a free demo version called 'OsiriX Lite', however there are major limitations placed on this including pop-ups asking you to upgrade to the paid version, performance restrictions, image viewing restrictions and inability to edit the meta-data attached to DICOM images - for example you can't easily re-order series within a study, which may be important if you are preparing cases for teaching or examinations. It is for these reasons that we do not list OsiriX Lite in our recommendations. OsiriX-UK user Group. The OsiriX UK user group are a group of Radiologists in the UK who are keen on digital radiology education and use OsiriX/Horos for teaching.
