DICOM View opens a folder of DICOM files in the browser and lists the series in it, with each series’ size and main acquisition parameters. Choosing a series converts it to NIfTI with dcm2niix and shows it in FreeBrowse, a NiiVue viewer with contrast (window and level), colormap and layout controls; a series that dcm2niix splits, such as one with several echoes or magnitude and phase, offers each image. A conversion keeps running when another series is chosen, and Convert all converts every series one after another. Converted images are saved in the browser’s own storage, keyed by the content of the series, so the same folder opens without converting again; Clear saved removes them. The Header view lists every element of an instance, nested sequences included, names it from the DICOM dictionary, and can keep only the fields that differ between the instances of the series. It also shows the BIDS sidecar dcm2niix writes. Protocol runs dicompare in Python in the browser to group the files into acquisitions and list their parameters, and checks them against a schema from the dicompare library. Fields that vary are marked in bold. Compliance checks compare parameters with a published protocol; they are not a clinical quality assessment.
Files are read and converted in this browser and are never uploaded. The converted images and their anonymised sidecars are stored in this browser, on this device, until you choose Clear saved or clear the site’s data; anyone using this browser profile can open them. Python and dicompare download from their public package hosts the first time a protocol is summarised; your files are not sent. The example is downloaded from Hugging Face at a pinned revision.
Open in another webapp keeps the selected series in this browser’s storage so the chosen app on this site can open it within 2 minutes; it is deleted once that app opens it, and nothing is uploaded. Most apps receive the NIfTI image dcm2niix made, named after the series number and description; its header keeps acquisition details such as echo and acquisition time, not the patient’s name or birth date. Apps that read DICOM, such as dicompare, receive the series’ DICOM files unchanged, and those headers do hold the patient’s details. If the browser closes first, the files can no longer be opened, but their bytes stay in browser storage until an app on this site is next opened after those 2 minutes. A browser that restores its previous session may still open them within the 2 minutes.
