OsiriX HD for iPad in use during surgery:Īnd no, this has no relation to the teenager selling his kidney to buy an iPad 2.SigmaViewer is a DICOM Viewer available in three versions: local, wado supplied within the WebServer module and DicomDir for use on mobile devices such as cd, dvd or usb key provided on MediaL, medium or MediaXP modules. In fact, this combination is already in use at some hospitals around the world, and you can watch a video below of surgeons using an iPad with MRI images within OsiriX during an operation. My doctor happened to be using an older Windows tablet – remember those? – but I can see these apps and iPads taking the healthcare world by storm in the very near future. Considering how expensive everything else is in the American health care world, I was impressed to find out that these apps are offered for free for Mac, iPhone, and iPad.
OsiriX delivered in a far more impressive manner than I expected, it is one of the most interesting applications I’ve ever used. I’m just a curious patient, not a medical professional, but after paying the equivalent of a brand new midrange MacBook Pro to get an MRI, I wanted to be able to view the resulting MRI DICOM images on my Mac when I got home. In my case, these DICOM files came from an MRI.
