Free software for medical imaging: Bringing technological independence to hospitals
LibrePlanet 2015

In this talk, I will explain the pains behind modern medical imaging, from the perspective of the hospitals. The DICOM standard will be introduced, together with free software supporting this standard. I will then put emphasis on the free software Orthanc, a lightweight, versatile vendor neutral archive. Orthanc is conceived as a central, robust building block to bring technological independence to clinical departments, by automating their very specific imaging flows and by creating free gateways between proprietary ecosystems.
