cornerstoneArchiveImageLoader | Chris Hafey 's cornerstoneWADOImageLoader to load DICOM

cornerstoneArchiveImageLoader is a JavaScript library typically used in Healthcare, Pharma, Life Sciences applications. cornerstoneArchiveImageLoader has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

For the RadioLogic project started two years ago, I used up to now Chris Hafey's cornerstoneWADOImageLoader to load DICOM studies as clinical cases from an AWS S3 bucket with a JSON file, listing the related DICOM files, or from an Orthanc server hosted on a MacBook, a Synology NAS and a Raspberry PI (OrthancPi). RadioLogic is a teaching and assessment tool for radiologists, work in progress. It's a webapp optimized for use on iPAD's. To improve the handling of the clinical cases and to facilitate the use of the iPAD's in environments without WiFi or cellular phone access, I decided to add the possibility to load the clinical cases from zipped archives. New HTML5 technologies like indexedDB make it possible to store large files locally in the browser. Today indexedDB is supported by all major browsers. The present cornerstoneArchiveImageLoader reads and decodes DICOM files from a standard zipped DICOMDIR archive. A simple way to create such an archive is to download a DICOMDIR file from an Orthanc server. For different reasons I prefer to present the results in my own way, instead of using a standard GitHub fork.
