Hi!! Please guide with whatever material you can provide... :) [Actually not getting any reference codes online]
I have to create a web application. This web application has to use/implement Dicom standards. I have come across many dicom libraries like leadtools, mydicom,etc etc BUT i have to create this application from the SCRATCH!! I understand this is no simple task.I am unable to locate any source for such information .
I do have a link..
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/graphics/dicomImageViewer.aspx
But this is a window based application and i am not able to convert it to a web one...
Help me create a web page which can at least display a dicom image...

I've looked at that article. If you can't convert it to work on the web, odds are basically zero that you can write a DICOM implimentation from scratch, which is not what you'd be doing if you followed this article. Also, you would only be able to view uncompressed DICOMs. MyDOCUM is an excellent library for gaining access to PACS, etc, and the Atalasoft library is great for viewing DICOMs including multi frame DICOMs and regardless of how they are compressed.

Why do you 'have' to create this web app ? I assume that means you're working for someone. Unless they are paying you $5 a week, it will be quicker and cheaper for them to buy a library, than to pay you to take 2 years to write one.

yes, i am working for a company.I have 1 year of exp in asp.net web application and i am totally new to the Dicom concept as well as window applications.
Can u help me convert

to a web application...

Christian Graus 27-Aug-10 2:10am

It's really not hard to do the conversion, but I certainly don't have time to do it. All you need to do, is store an image file in a format that a browser can view and send that to the browser. Your boss is dreaming if he thinks you can impliment the DICOM standard on your own in a reasonable amount of time. And don't forget that that project will not show the MAJORITY of DICOM files. You can use the Bitmap class to access files that have normal JPEG compression, but that's still going to leave a ton of files that your code will not open. Your ONLY reasonable option is to buy the Atalasoft library.

The problem i face is that the image control in asp.net is not displaying the dicom file coz of the bits problem..
Also, sir if we go in for the dicom libraries mentioned by you how much time?(max) it can take to implement the solution(Dicom viewer and pacs).
Which library will you recommend between Atalasoft and leadtools and y??

Christian Graus 27-Aug-10 2:19am

The image control is just an img tag. It needs to point to a png, gif, jpg or bmp. Then it works fine. I recommend the Atalasoft library. It shouldn't take more than a day or two to get to the point of having a web page that shows any DICOM you like, once you have that library. You need to buy the core library, and the DICOM add on.
