DICOM Toolkit
All,
I apologize for reposting this, I sent it originally from work and it was
badly mangled by outlook.
I just read the announcment in LWN about your project. I am a PACS (Digital
Imaging System) sysadmin. I was very interested to read the current med
projects, especially the imaging related projects. I thought you might be
interested in a open source software package called DCMTK. It is a fairly
mature and very stable set of DICOM tools, including storage servers,
worklist servers, handling DICOM images, sending and receiving images, and
viewing/manipulating images. In other words the groundwork for a PACS
system. I am currently using it on top of Linux as way to burn DICOM images
to CD (we are trying to go completely filmless) as opposed to using film for
out of clinic reviews and it ties nicely in with existing commercial
applications (Radworks). I thought maybe your project could use this code
base as it looks like it would tie in nicely to what you are doing. It is
not GPL'd software, but I believe the copyright is GPL compatible and meets
Debians standard:
* Copyright of the software and supporting documentation is, unless
* otherwise stated, owned by OFFIS, and free access is hereby granted as

Q: Is Linux only good because it is free?
A: No, but Windows would still suck if it was.
