Notre collaboration explore l'applicabilité d'Orthanc comme serveur multimédia pour le partage des numérisations des collections anthropologiques grâce au standard d'interopérabilité DICOM.

Ce travail vient d'être présenté au 35e édition du Colloque du Groupement des Anthropologistes de Langue Française (GALF 2024).

Version 2.1 of the whole-slide imaging plugin for Orthanc has just been released!

This new release brings a huge number of improvements, including better support for the Leica (.scn), Mirax (.mrxs), and Hamamatsu (.ndpi) formats, as well as for sparse tiling.

In addition, the "--padding" option of the OrthancWSIDicomizer command-line tool offers an easy way to pad JPEG, PNG, and plain TIFF images with a border to make their size compatible with deep zoom over the IIIF protocol.

I am pleased to announce the release of version 1.2 of the plugin for Orthanc.

This release upgrades the embedded Nexus viewer for cultural heritage to version 2.3. It also brings support for the viewer.

The first release of the plugin for Orthanc is available! This plugin enables Orthanc to execute code written in Java. This can notably be used to combine Orthanc with the dcm4che library for , or to turn Orthanc into a server using HAPI. discourse.orthanc-server.org/t

Introducing our latest plugin for Orthanc! Now you can encapsulate files into instances seamlessly, then display them using any Web viewer. STL files can also be automatically generated from DICOM structure sets (RT-STRUCT). orthanc.uclouvain.be/book/plug

Yet another scientific publication that talks about Orthanc without citing the associated paper. Such a behavior hinders the search for funding to pursue the development of free and open-source projects for the benefit of the whole community.

Well deserved, Sébastien! The honor is mine and I feel privileged to meet such a caring and talented person that relentlessly work to make open science & medical imaging a reality around the world. Real heroes don't wear suits. Real heroes do things such as writing #Orthanc for the betterment of our society ❤️

I am extremely honored to share that today, I received the GNU Health Social Medicine award for outstanding individual during the GNU Health conference 2023.

It's an award that gives deep meaning to the work I've been doing for over ten years, from a community whose aim is to promote public health and social medicine.

I'm especially grateful to @meanmicio, who is one of those few people who know how to unite people around a goal for the common good. Luis is one of the most inspiring people in my life. Thank you for everything you've taught me!

"Free software is not only about technology, it's about writing code with heart."

@meanmicio Hi Luis we're at the entry portal... could someone open us?

Time for the last technical talk of the conference, with Diego Victor de Jesus explaining how Orthanc router containers could help to scale and organize applications for medical imaging

Gabriel Couture is now introducing PyOrthanc as a Python wrapper around the REST API of Orthanc, whose implementation was bootstrapped from the OpenAPI documentation provided by the Orthanc project at api.orthanc-server.com/

It's now up to the Orthanc Team to talk about the deployment of Orthanc as a secured cloud-based PACS
