What it does
MicroDicom opens DICOM image studies and provides measurement, comparison, reconstruction and image-fusion tools on Windows.
Open a DICOM study from a folder, disc or PACS, compare the series and use measurements or reconstruction views to inspect the data. For a rendered picture, choose File > Export > To a picture file, select the destination and source range, then set the format. Export can include measurements and annotations, split multi-frame images into separate pictures, and keep original dimensions or use custom dimensions up to 10,000 pixels. Free use is non-commercial; commercial work requires a licence. The manual prohibits clinical use or use affecting patient management, including with a paid licence.
