Osimis Web Viewer

The Osimis' Web Viewer provides medical image visualization straight from the browser.

It is distributed as a plugin to Orthanc. In other words, the viewer can be connected to most modalities, but also leveraged through Orthanc's strong architectural extensibility.

2D rendering is supported with the usual tools:

• Zooming
• Panning
• Windowing
• Length Measurement
• Angle Measurement
• Point/Circle/Rectangle of Interest
• Image Flipping/Rotation
• Multiframe support

Have a look at our blog.

Demo

A demo of the viewer is available at those links:

• IRM study.
• Full demo, embedded within the Orthanc Explorer. Other studies are available from there.

Nightly builds are available here. They are still unstable at the moment.

We recommend to download the binaries for Windows and Mac OS X & the docker image for Linux.

This article details the installation process on Windows.

This procedure explains how to use the docker image on Linux.

For Mac OS X, the procedure is very similar to the windows' one. Unzip the downloaded folder and double click on the startOrthanc.command file.
