The Advantage Of Using A Three Dimensional DICOM Viewer As medical technology in the healthcare field rapidly advances at a dizzying pace, viewing Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) data using 3D imaging software is progressively the norm. It is a standard file format for sending medical imaging data, where patient data can be very easily exchanged in DICOM format between medical professionals. This standard is already found in many hospitals and quite a few more doctors’ and dentists’ offices are likewise using this format. Files which are in DICOM format are read by a3DtThree dimensional imaging software contains these standards in addition to a viewer to read the files. Data derived from ultrasound, CT, PET, MR, as well as other types of medical image data is analyzed using 3D imaging software. With medical professionals top of mind, software was developed with an intuitive interface based on a typical clinical workflow with real world applications. Users can compute rendered three dimensional images and make annotations and measurements very easily while working directly in the DICOM communication function. Users can also make maximum intensity forecasts, and display 2D images in oblique and orthogonal planes. In the DICOM communication function, the 3D imaging software is capable of doing queries and retrieve data. In print mode, it can also display metadata and produce targeted results. With software designed specifically to conform within DICOM standards, users will have the benefit of both worlds: the ease of being pre-formatted, combined with access to numerous 3D software tools and features. Using 3D imaging software with a DICOM viewer, healthcare professionals can capture detailed 3D renderings in rich 32-bit color. To better diagnose disease conditions, data can be visualized and cut along any axis to show an oblique perspective. Within a region of interest, a user is able to measure lengths, probe pixel values, and various angles in order to help diagnose a disease. The software can then be used to produce axial views and curved planar reformats extracted from a path. Multi-slice imaging processes can also produce maximum intensity projections and multiplanar reformats. For even further diagnosis, a user can easily create and navigate between multiseries studies. The software provides for intra- and intermodal data fusion, a virtual fly-through, and a virtual endoscopy mode. For beginning users, automated image segmentation and also other automated tools provide for a simple, user-friendly experience. The automated tools get rid of obstructions from view while the segmentation tools visually isolate features. The software delivers high-quality images, structured reports, screenshots, and movies of annotated data. A three dimensional software package can be used as a stand-alone workstation, be included in a larger picture archiving and communication network, or be accessed from a browser or mobile device with additional software, it doesn't matter who the end user may be. Add-on modules can be acquired or developed employing a Plug-in development kit package if you are an advanced or specialized user. If planning endovascular procedures, add-ons including Vessel Analysis can help perform the highly-specialized tasks of aneurysm quantification and stenosis calculations. Another pre-developed add-on, Autoplaque, allows cardiologists and radiologists to evaluate calcified plaque on CCTA studies, showing great detail in total plaque Object Research Systems

The Advantage Of Using A Three Dimensional DICOM Viewer volume, stenosis percentage, and multiple lesion analysis. 3D imaging software that comes with a DICOM viewer has been given FDA and Health Canada clearance, and has been CE marked for EU countries. Leading to much better medical diagnosis and study, the software enables numerous 3D features that will assist in the reviewing, processing, distributing and storing of medical images. DICOM standards already embedded and incorporated into the 3D software help to ensure the simplicity of use and day to day practicality of using this leading edge 3D imaging software.
