Dicom Image Viewer is a Java-based utility designed for viewing medical images such as X-rays; thus, its functionality is not intended for the average user as a more technical eye is required to check and interpret the scans.

DICOM stands for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine and it is a standard for medical imaging. It has wide usage as it can handle store and send this type of information.

The Dicom Image Viewer can create a local database out of the images it loads, which allows checking of the scans at later times.

Once the medical image is loaded the user can sort the various frames by dimension or choose the VOI LUT shape, enable the display of overlays or apply shutters.

Among the options present in the application there is also the possibility to access external resources like remote systems and retrieve medical details from the databases they hold; the necessary means to send the data to the remote system is also available in the application.

Working with this type of application requires knowledge about medical imaging systems and procedures in order to be able to interpret the scans.

However, during our tests the viewer did not allow the loading of multiple sequences of a scan and it became unresponsive on several occasions. In some cases the images in the local database did not load and could not be viewed.

Even if you’re not familiar with this type of program it is clear that Dicom Image Viewer is not the best in the branch. Also, some of the functions did not work in our case. On the up side, it offers the possibility to load a medical scan pretty fast for quick interpretation.
