The first version was developed by An- toine Rosset MD, a radiologist from Geneva, Switzerland. 1.1.2 History The OsiriX project started in November 2003. The up-to-date version of this standard is available on the DICOM website 2. DICOM is reg- ularly updated through the DICOM committee. OsiriX is fully compliant with the DICOM standard for image communication and image file formats. The DICOM standard has now become the uncontested standard for the exchange and management of biomedical images. By adopting OsiriX you have made the right choice: it meets normal requirements, it is simple to use, it has unlimited power and the ability to evolve! 1.1.1 About DICOM DICOM is a standard for handling, storing, printing and transmitting information in medical imaging. OsiriX supports 64-bit computing and multithreading for the best performances on the most modern processors. OsiriX offers a complete integration with any PACS, including the well known open-source project: dcm4chee 1. OsiriX offers advanced post-processing techniques in 2D and 3D. OsiriX fully supports the DICOM standard for an easy integration in your workflow environment. OsiriX is the result of more than 5 years of research and development in digital imag- ing. Using OsiriX as a primary diag- nostic workstation also requires the use of certified monitors for medical imaging. If you plan to use OsiriX in a medical environment, you will require a certified version for primary diag- nostic imaging. Several versions of OsiriX are available.
