Rebranded DicomScience Logo

2009-11-23T08:32:00.003+01:00

With the support of our contibutor, Bernd Brägelmann, DicomScience has now and finally a logo that it's worth it. We'll be implementing this in the Google Code page in a few days.

Thank's again, Bernd, for the support!

Active PDF Documents

2009-10-19T08:50:00.001+02:00

Exporting content from a website can be very inconvenient. Either it involves many clicks, or files, or both :-)

DicomScience offers you an export functionality which creates you a PDF file including key images from your movies and full resolution images from you DICOM Data.

If your DicomScience Server is within your network range - you may click on each multimedia object which will be opened in an own browser window.

If you need to, you still can save the movie or image to your harddisk.

Stay tuned for more science on dicomscience.org - or simply follow dicomscience on Twitter.

Exporting Cases

2009-10-13T08:21:00.001+02:00

Of course, Twitter is not the only way to communicate medical teaching cases out of DicomScience.
Using the free FPDF Plugin, any Report or case can be exported with a single click containg all relevant information including key images and discussion protocols.

This nifty screenshot has been taken on board of the ICE 614, so please don't mind the quality.

Beta release is at head, so stay tuned for more science on dicomscience.org!

Who needs a save button?

2009-10-04T15:03:00.002+02:00

"Save buttons are a thing of the past."

GoogleNotes, e.g. is demonstrating this issue with great success. Using Ajax technologies, reports are being stored immediately after the user leaves the report editor field with his (or her) mouse (onMouseLeave - event). This ensures that even a draft edited report can be visible to authorized personel even during editing. Of course, it doesn't have to.

Don't like the color set? Please comment any suggestions for being either noticed in the main theme or in an additional one.

Sure, DicomScience is themeable.

Tweet your cases

You want to send DicomScience Blogposts (a.k.a. micro messages) from inside your hospital DicomScience installation to twitter.com? You want to inform your followers about news on your cases? You want to keep your students tracked about new uploads?

What are teaching cases?

2009-09-24T21:15:00.003+02:00

In DicomScience, cases are a collection of several objects containing text, multimedia and discussion messages. This enables the user to combine an own, a new or even a foreign report with uploaded DICOM images, movies other supported mimetypes into a single folder.

To preview these objects from the main portal view we use jQueryUI for a neat look. Have a look yourself on this developer preview screenshot.

Things are growing fast... stay tuned for more science on dicomscience.org.

BlogEngine online

2009-09-10T15:32:00.004+02:00

After some jokes and games with jQuery, the Blog Engine of DicomScience is now ready and working in the prototype virtual machine.

At this time, I have to admit saying it is really neat, working with cookies in PHP. Love the "remember me" function while testing. I hope you do so while working with DicomScience!

Beyond DICOM

2009-08-23T14:39:00.004+02:00

Since medical education involves many different file formats beyond a static DICOM image, DicomScience is prepared for the first step bridging DICOM and non DICOM in a Teaching Files matters.
Since the specification converting a stack of images into a mpeg movie has already been released, we now do kind the other way round, too. DicomScience is capable of handling several different mime types like audio, video, pdf and images, as well as binary or not yet recognized mime types.

(o.k. maybe not to use ms paint to create an overview next time)

This should've been the last feature post for the backend. Stay tuned for more science on DicomScience!

continue...

2009-08-15T16:12:00.000+02:00

Since the Developement continues on the backend API, I was desperately in need of some admin interface to add meself some testusers. I hope you like the screenshot of a quick User-Admin Gui.

Stay tuned for more science!

reached 50% mark of controller unit

2009-08-07T18:06:00.006+02:00

Since the developement of DicomScience goes on, all "read" controllers are now ready for work. The read controllers represent half of the API's to obtain information from the server. Of course, the other half is to store data into the server, which will be a lot more fun to code. or will it?
Check code.google.com/p/dicomscience for the SVN directory.

mpeg Plugin View

2009-08-03T21:53:00.004+02:00

Using the QuickTime Plugin in Safari and Mozilla, a movie in the final application might just look like this:

movieBot Demo Video

2009-08-02T17:21:00.003+02:00

One of our Key Features is to convert all larger series to mpeg movies. Anonymized of course. Automatized of course. This is a demo video of our first test-runs through the interface.

DICOM Interface reached alpha state

2009-08-02T16:55:00.003+02:00

As of today, the dicom interface and the movie bot reached working state in alpha. Still without APIs, no download yet available.

Stay tuned for more science!
