DICOMLibrary: Share & view DICOM files with an advanced online viewer
DicomLibrary is a free online service for sharing, browsing and analyzing DICOM files, with advanced feature-rich DICOM viewer that supports many DICOM modalities and PACS models. It's easy to use and provides anonymity for the shared files with an advanced anonymizing tool they built to maintain the patient's privacy. It has more than 473.000 studies shared, and the number of shared studies are growing every day.
How does it work?
The service does not require registration and the DICOM viewer itself does not require login to use it. The workflow is simple: Upload, View and manage, then Share. The user can upload a DICOM file, compressed ( zipped ) file or studies files, the background libraries will remove the sensitive information from the files and provide processed files in results page to view in the DICOM viewer, share it, download the processed files, or delete it.
One of the most important features DICOMLibrary provides is the option to embed DICOM Study - embed DICOM viewer on websites like blogs, forums or CMS ( Content Management Systems ) which makes it very effective tools for radiologists and medical students
