NAME
       dicomscope - DICOM Viewer

SYNOPSIS
       dicomscope DICOMFile.dcm

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page documents briefly the dicomscope command.

       DICOMscope  is  a  free DICOM viewer which can display uncompressed, monochrome DICOM images from all modalities and which supports monitor
       calibration according to DICOM part 14 as well as presentation states. DICOMscope offers a print client (DICOM Basic Grayscale  Print  Man-
       agement)  which also implements the optional Presentation LUT SOP Class. The development of this prototype was commissioned by the "Commit-
       tee for the Advancement of DICOM" and demonstrated at the European Congress of Radiology ECR 1999. An enhanced version  was  developed  for
       the  "DICOM  Display  Consistency Demonstration" at RSNA InfoRAD 1999. The current release 3.5.1 has been demonstrated at ECR 2001 and con-
       tains numerous extensions, including a print server, support for encrypted DICOM communication, digital signatures and  structured  report-
       ing.

       DICOMscope is not meant as a competition for commercial DICOM viewers. The application is rather a feasibility study for DICOM presentation
       states. The program is not appropriate to be used in a clinical environment, e.g. for reporting.
