The LEADTOOLS Web Viewer Framework Module enables programmers to quickly build high-quality, full-featured, web-based medical image viewer applications.
It includes WCF components, HTML5 / javascript controls and services that enable you to implement high-level interfaces for distributing medical studies from a server to web clients, even with very limited knowledge of web hosting and web service development. This is ideal for web-based solutions like querying patient studies and viewing images from remote computers and mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets.
The plug-in capable design also allows developers to use the framework for non-DICOM images or binary data transfer, and to extend an implemented web service to include application-specific data transfer and communication capabilities.
The LEADTOOLS Medical Web Viewer Framework Module architecture includes both server-side and client-side components with security options.
The LEADTOOLS JavaScript MedicalViewer class provides an HTML5 control that supports viewing images and performing client-side window-leveling on DICOM images. Client-side window-leveling is a valuable feature enabling the users to get fast window-leveling on the web without waiting for the server to do the window-leveling and then return the results back to the client. After an image is loaded, the window level functionality is ready to begin without requiring the server at all (offline Window Level support). Another very important feature is that the window-leveling can be done on the actual 16- or 12-bit DICOM data. This provides users with accurate results for window level functionality, showing small details that might not be observable when working with JPEG images.
The LEADTOOLS Medical JavaScript Viewer control is cross-browser capable, eliminating additional coding to handle cross browser compatibility.
