DICOM SDK Libraries
LEADTOOLS includes a wide range of development tools to create entire DICOM-compatible applications that include DICOM data sets, directory (DICOMDIR), secure communication, security, 2D and 3D viewers, video playback and medical-specific image viewing and processing. Developers creating .NET Framework, .NET MAUI, Xamarin, UWP, C++ Class Library, C#, VB, C/C++, Java, Objective-C, Swift, and HTML / JavaScript apps can create, load, and save all IOD classes within the DICOM Specifications and Supplements.
Complete DICOM Data Set Library
The LEADTOOLS DICOM libraries are indispensable for programmers working on applications for medical and other life sciences industries. Following the latest DICOM specification, the DICOM APIs support all IODs with or without optional modules and elements. Additionally, the libraries support all transfer syntaxes, native model (XML and JSON), ANSI, Unicode, and multi-language character support to load and save ideographic and phonetic characters within the same DICOM element.

The LEADTOOLS HTML5/JavaScript Zero-footprint DICOM Viewer is a fully implemented customizable web application that is perfect for any developer that needs a fast, lightweight DICOM viewer that includes the features 3D volume rendering, DICOM Overlay and Softcopy Presentation State.
PACS Workstation Framework
The PACS Workstation Framework is a comprehensive framework that includes .NET components, 2D and 3D Workstation Viewer, and an OEM-ready PACS Workstation solution. It is the culmination of more than 19 years of medical-imaging development experience and direct collaboration with health care institutions to create a product that meets the real-world requirements of hospitals, practices, and radiology/imaging departments.
DICOM and Medical Image Annotation Libraries
A broad range of DICOM and medical image annotation objects are included in the Medical Image Viewer and Medical Workstation Viewer controls. These medical image annotations can be added to DICOM, bitonal, color, and grayscale images, either on a presentation layer or burned into the image data. They are perfect for highlighting areas of interest and redacting private information. Access to edit annotations or view private information can be control with user-level passwords. Flexible annotation object storage options include DICOM data sets (Grayscale Softcopy Presentation State), image files, separate annotation files, database, memory, and XML.

DICOM Edit Control
The LEADTOOLS DICOM Edit Control leverages LEADTOOLS internal DICOM dictionaries (e.g., IOD and Tag tables) to provide visual cues to the user about the requirements of a specific tag with respect to the IOD class, data type allowed, and additional information about the use of the tag. Users can also associate a set of predefined values that are allowed for a tag. The values can be based on restrictions imposed by the DICOM standard or implementation specific restrictions.

- Waveform annotations
In addition, LEADTOOLS supports all of the waveform related IODs defined in DICOM, including:
- Basic Voice Audio
- 12-Lead Electrocardiogram
- General Electrocardiogram
- Ambulatory Electrocardiogram
- Hemodynamic
DICOM Anonymization API
LEADTOOLS DICOM libraries provide classes and APIs to anonymize DICOM and redact overlays and pixel data.
PACS and DICOM Communications Libraries
The LEADTOOLS DICOM Communication SDK library provides DICOM communications components that simplify the creation of DICOM client/server applications, such as PACS, with complete implementations for all DICOM service classes such as Verification, Query/Retrieve, Storage, and Patient Management.
