CDMEDIC PACS WEB / News: Recent posts

Thanks to Dominique Harriague for the French traslation,
you can get the file in:
http://cdmedicpacsweb.sourceforge.net/lang_fr and copy
it to replace the file /etc/cdmedicpacsweb/lang to get the
cdmedicpacsweb translated to French.
I encourage people for send more translations, the current ones are English, Spanish and
Thanks beforehand!

Thanks to Juergen Salk and Andreas Tille to make possible the official Debian packaging of the nice OFFIS DICOM toolkit, dcmtk, from now available in:
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=dcmtk&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all
Also thanks to Kevim M. Rosemberg, creator of CTSim,
open source Computer Tomography Simulator, and maintainer of the official Debian package of ctn available in:
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=ctn&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all
So there is not reason for maintain an unofficial versions here.

I'm waiting to the transition from Woody (Now Debian Stable) to Sarge (Next Stable), to release the new cdmedic-6.iso, based on the Kernel 2.6 with better hardware support and performance.
New intended features:
DICOM CD burner including DICOM dir and photogallery of converted jpegs
Autoconversion form DICOM to AFNI, Analyze-SPM
Medical terminology dictionary in OpenOffice and
updates of all software included.

New deb packages for ctn 3.0.6 and dcmtk 3.5.3, the latest version.

Knoppix based Live mini CD(195MB), with the AMIDE program.
A DICOM server, using OFFIS dcmtk, converts automaticly the DICOM series received to Analyze/SPM format used by AMIDE, using routines from AFNI.
Amide's Manual translated to Spanish and a example study with brain PET and MRI modalities, to practice with.

New debian package of the latest version of AFNI with
SUMA compiled in.

New release, cdmedic-5.iso, with the followings addons:
Dicom Viewer (Java Applet)
New MR and PET samples, Tailarach & FSL processed
Save configuration & work or install in the hard disk
OpenOfifice, Mozilla Firebird & Thunderbird, XMMS....

Now you can use the Nagoya Intitute of Technology
DicomViewer (Java Applet) to see the DICOM studies
stored in the CDMEDIC PACS WEB, with window&level,
zoom and other features.
Usage: Click the link to /cgi-bin/dicomviewer

CDMEDIC PACS WEB plus interesting medical image processing programs like AFNI, FSL, Amide, XMedcon, Slicer and CTsim, with data samples running without hard disk installation form the CDROM.

Now you can have the PACS running from a KNOPPIX based bootable CD, without hard disk installation, and in less than 5 minutes(http://cdmedicpacsweb.sourceforge.net/instalacion3_en.html).
Thank's to Klaus Knopper and Debian people for their great contributions to Linux.
