DicomBrowser is a platform-independent desktop tool for inspecting DICOM header fields, editing DICOM header fields, viewing DICOM images, and transferring DICOM files to a DICOM receiver.
DicomBrowser allows users to view and edit a whole session—or even multiple sessions—at once. Users can save the original or modified files to disk, or send them across a network to a DICOM C-STORE service class provider, such as a PACS or DicomServer.
DicomBrowser includes scripatable header editing to support various de-identification protocols. DicomBrowser is written in Java and uses ImageJ for image viewing and dcm4che toolkit for much of its DICOM implementation.
The software also uses dcm4che, HSQLDB, and JDOM.
Features include:
- Load thousands of images simultaenously.
- Batch processing of attribute changes via anonymization scripts.
- Command-line interface to the anonymization script engine.
- Cross-platform software as it’s written in the Java programming language.
