This time a few new features and improvements:

• Time-Intensity Curve generation (CTRL + SHIFT + E).
• Zoom & pan synchronization.
• Window (WW/WL) synchronization.
• Synchronization settings in split screen button popup menu.
• Duplicate ROI in corresponding series (CTRL + SHIFT + D).
• Delete ROIs in all visible images (SHIFT + DEL).
• Status bar shows remaining files during folder scan.
• Change color scale in fusion images (click color bar).
• Change fused image opacity (left mouse button down and drag over color bar).
• Maximize/restore panel (button/double click on image/CTRL + M), you can switch between opened series in maximized panel using TAB.
• Click panel close button with CTRL pressed to clear the panel instead of closing it.
• Anonimize all visible patient data (SHIFT + F12).
• Added WW/WL presets for modalities other than CT.
• Hold CTRL during ellipse drawing to show actual DICOM pixels area (only when image is magnified).
• Ellipse ROI label shows actual DICOM pixels number used for calculations.
• Options.xml file (ProgramData/RadiAntViewer folder in Windows7) - change default options (currently only by manual editing).
• Zoom-to-region mode for zooming tool (available in options.xml).
• Off-center zooming (retains desired image region visibility during zooming - available in options.xml).
• Other minor improvements and bug fixes.

We will appreciate your comments and suggestions!

Improvements and bug fixes:

• Better support for the new enhanced multi-frame DICOM CT and MR files - measurements, default window parameters, auto synchronization, cross reference lines, MPR and image fusion.
• SD (standard deviation) calculation in ellipse ROI.
• Fixed issue with ellipse ROI calculations in fusion MPR (coronal and sagittal) images.
• Faster DICOM load and export times.
• Better memory management.

This version features better support for the new enhanced multi-frame DICOM CT and MR files - measurements, default window parameters, auto synchronization, cross reference lines, MPR and fusion should now work properly.

We also improved significantly performance of a 32-bit version while reading and exporting large number of DICOM files (an export performed on our >100000 files database was 5 times faster than in 1.0.4 version).

One small addition is SD calculation in ellipse ROI.

With Windows 8 just around the corner, we have been testing our viewer using Windows 8 Release Preview version and can confirm that RadiAnt DICOM Viewer is fully compatible with the new operating system from Microsoft arriving in October.

Once Windows 8 tablets are available to customers, we will update RadiAnt DICOM Viewer to fully utilize multi-touch gestures. Only tablets with Intel CPUs (Microsoft Surface Pro, Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2, etc.) will be supported because RadiAnt is a Desktop Application and cannot run on ARM devices.

We have been working for a few weeks on a refreshed version of our website. Yesterday we pushed it live.

We hope that you will like it, along with our new ant :-) Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

New features:

• Multiplanar reconstructions.
• PET-CT fusion (other types of images can be also fused, e.g. DWI and conventional MRI sequences).
• Screen splitting with a predefined column/row number (drag and drop series thumbnail images into viewports).
• DICOM tags inspection window.
• Angle measurement.
• Cobb angle measurement.

Improvements and bug fixes:

• The autorun package for CD/DVD contains both 32 and 64 bit versions.
• More keyboard shortcuts (series navigation - Home/End, tool selection - C/B/M/W/Z).
• Middle mouse button adjusts window level/width.
• Auto synchronization on/off switch.
• Display cross-reference lines on/off switch.
• Ellipse tool shows minimum and maximum values in covered area.
• ROIs drawn with an outline for better visibility on brighter backgrounds.
• Movable ROI text labels.
• More zoom presets added - 200, 400 and 800%.
• The installer supports silent setup mode.
• Crash reporting tool.
• Improved look of certain dialog windows when using non-standard DPI settings.
• Support for PALETTE COLOR DICOM images.
• Improved support for JPEG DICOM images.
• Other minor features and many bug fixes.

Finally, a release candidate version is here!
We will appreciate if you download it and try the features we have developed since the 0.50 version:

• Multiplanar reconstructions.
• PET-CT fusion (other types of images can be also fused, e.g. DWI and conventional MRI sequences).
• Screen splitting with a predefined column/row number (drag and drop series thumbnail images into viewports).
• DICOM tags inspection window.
• Angle measurement.
• Cobb angle measurement.
• Other minor features and many bug fixes.

We're getting close to the 1.0 Release Candidate version. Yesterday we published the 0.99 beta release, available for download here. This beta version is valid for the next 3 months.

The following major features were added since the 0.50 version:

• Multiplanar reconstructions.
• PET-CT fusion (other types of images can be also fused, e.g. DWI and conventional MRI sequences).
• Screen splitting with a predefined column/row number (drag and drop series thumbnail images into viewports).
• DICOM tags inspection window.
• Angle measurement.
• Cobb angle measurement.

Other minor features and bug fixes will be detailed in the public Release Candidate version.
As always, your feedback is most welcome!
