Zusammenfassung. In der Arbeit wird ein Netzwerkalgorithmus für die Kompression und die Rekonstruktion von DICOM-Bildern präsentiert. Der Algorithmus besteht aus zwei Teil: die Bitebenen des Originalbildes werden aufgrund einer vorläufigen Segmentation und Analyse des Bildinhaltes klassifiziert; auf Basis der Klassifikationsergebnisse wird das DICOM-Bild in zwei Bilder aufgeteilt. Danach werden...

The goal of this work is to build an ontology of Magnetic Resonance Imaging. The MRI domain has been analysed regarding MRI simulators and the DICOM standard. Tow MRI simulators have been analysed: JEMRIS, which is developed in XML and C , has a ++ hierarchical organisation and SIMRI, which is developed in C, has a good representation of MRI physical processes. To build the ontology we have use...

Picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) require highspeed networks to transmit large image files between components. While transmitting data through public networks, privacy, authenticity, and integrity have always been some critical problems. Recent years, IPv6 brings significant improvements in mechanisms for assuring a higher level of security. In this paper, we first analyzes how...

Teleconsulting and Teleconferencing is nowadays a strict need for patient follow-up or for medical second opinion. The growing of this kind of techniques for teleconsulting needs an effective way to achieve a fast communication on non-dedicated connection lines. Moreover another prerequisite for this kind of activities is the conformance to DICOM that is the de facto standard for medical image ...

Displaying medical images and waveforms which are stored in the DICOM file format is no longer a task that can be performed on desktop pc’s only. This article describes a feasibility study where we have developed a set of applications for viewing and even analysing DICOM image and waveform objects on mobile devices such as mobile phones or PDAs. In order to overcome the shortcomings, especially...

background: this study describes the possibility of implementing three-dimensional printing technology to create a precise construction of a planned bolus, based on computed tomography information stored in the digital imaging and communications in medicine (dicom) format file. materials and methods:  to create the bolus with a 3d printer, we converted data in the dicom format to the stereolith...
