Weasis DICOM medical viewer
A free/libre DICOM viewer
Weasis is a multipurpose standalone and web-based DICOM viewer with a highly modular architecture. It is a very popular clinical viewer used in healthcare by hospitals, health networks, multicenter research trials, and patients.
Weasis DICOM viewer is cross-platform, free/libre and open source software (FLOSS), multi-language and allows a flexible integration to PACS, RIS, HIS or PHR. This multi-platform DICOM viewer runs with several processor architectures on Windows, Linux, and macOS (see the packages available for download). It allows high-quality renderings with high performance through the OpenCV library.
Since version 4, it has a responsive user interface linked to the operating system options and works well on high-resolution screens.
- Color Histograms
- Exporting DICOM
- Measurement tools
- Orthogonal Multiplanar Reconstruction
- Pseudo-color
- User Interface Language
It has been designed to meet several expectations of clinical information systems and their future evolution regarding medical imaging: providing web-based access to radiological images, as well as covering a considerable number of DICOM types and offering multimedia capabilities.
Here are the main features:
- Display all kinds of DICOM files (including multi-frame, enhanced, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, MIME Encapsulation, SR, PR, KOS, AU, RT and ECG)
- Viewer for common image formats (TIFF, BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG, RAS, HDR, and PNM)
- Image manipulation (pan, zoom, windowing, presets, rotation, flip, scroll, crosshair, filtering…)
- Layouts for comparing series or studies
- Advanced series synchronization options
- Display Presentation States (GSPS) and Key Object Selection
- Create key images (Key Object Selection object) by selection
- Support of Modality LUTs, VOI LUTs, and Presentation LUTs (even non-linear)
- Support of several screens with different calibration, support of HiDPI (High Dots Per Inch) monitors, full-screen mode
- Multiplanar reconstructions and Maximum Intensity Projection
- Display Structured Reports
- Display and search into all DICOM attributes
- Display cross-lines
- Measurement and annotation tools
- Region statistics of pixels (Min, Max, Mean, StDev, Skewness, Kurtosis, Entropy)
- Histogram of modality values
- SUV measurement
- DICOM Send (storeSCU and STOW-RS)
- DICOM Query/Retrieve (C-GET, C-MOVE and WADO-URI) and DICOMWeb (QUERY and RETRIEVE)
- Save measurements and annotations in DICOM PR or XML file
- Import CD/DVD and local DICOM files
- Export DICOM with several options (DICOMDIR, ZIP, ISO image file with Weasis, generate new UIDs, transcoding, TIFF, JPEG, PNG…)
- Magnifier glass with advanced display options
- Native and DICOM printing
- Read DICOM image containing float or double data (Parametric Map)
- DICOM ECG Viewer
- Dicomizer module to convert standard images into DICOM
Weasis can display the content of most DICOM files with a high level of implementation of the DICOM standard.
