What is the LEADTOOLS Medical Web Viewer?
The LEADTOOLS Medical Web Viewer combines Microsoft .NET features with robust LEADTOOLS imaging and compression technologies, making it possible to bring a rich client experience to a state-of-the-art, web-based medical/radiology image viewing application.
Utilizing LEADTOOLS and Microsoft.NET technology, the application demonstrates basic features that can be made available in a telemedicine solution. Some of these features include:
• Querying for a patient/study based on different keys
• Viewing images from any computer with an internet connection and running Microsoft Internet Explorer,
• Support for all imaging modalities
• A high level interface for distributing studies from server to web client
• A configurable lossy and lossless image compression option (including wavelet based JPEG 2000) for background image streaming from a server to the web client.
This application also demonstrates many features offered by LEADTOOLS Medical Imaging SDKs, including:
• Support for 8, 10, 12, 16 grayscale and 24 bit images. These include JPEG (8, 10, 12, 16-bit Lossless grayscale, 8, 12 bit lossy grayscale, 24-bit lossless and lossy color), JPEG2000 (including lossy and lossless 8-16 bit grayscale images and 24-bit color), Run Length, Uncompressed, Photometric Interpretation (Monochrome1, Monochrome2, Palletized, RGB, ARGB, CMYK, YBR Full 422, YBR Full, YBR_RCT, YBR_ICT), and single and multi-frame images.
• Complete support for the DICOM 3 (2003) file specification, including all standard IOD VR's (value representations), classes, and modalities (CR, CT, MR, NM, US, RF, SC, VL, etc.).
• Single or multi-frame images (compressed or uncompressed).
• DICOM LUT/Overlay/Palette support.
• Rendering images or selected regions to a display device while controlling position/scaling; resample method (normal/bilinear/bicubic), brightness/contrast/gamma, color-reduction/dithering, image (source) and device (destination) clipping, and more.
• A Pan Viewer Control to scroll and pan an image that is larger than the viewing area, and a Magnifying Glass Control for viewing details in an image.
• Simplified, yet powerful window level support.
• Image markup and annotations, including rulers and angle measurement tools.
This application also demonstrates how to use LEADTOOLS with the following technologies:
• XML web services.
• ASP.NET.
• Windows forms and user controls.
• ADO.NET and Microsoft SQL Server.
