Default viewer for Orthanc Explorer 2 / adding Osimis to OE2

General
1

Hello,
The Explorer 2 patient’s view does not contain icon/button for the Osimis viewer and has a Stone viewer as default. The version is updated to the latest one. Is it any possibility to change the configuration of Explorer 2 to open Osimis as default or add icon? Stone viewer just shows incorrect data but Osimis is great and works fine in the legacy explorer. The Stone shows data not by fully correct way, not sorted and mixed. Old Win installation with TB’s of US data.
Thanks!

Hello,

The Osimis Web viewer has been left unmaintained for about 5 years now (Osimis is now in bankrupt), so you should not use it anymore. If you face issues with the Stone Web viewer, why do not you provide us with sample DICOM data so that we can work on a fix?

Kind Regards,

Dear Sébastien, thank you for your reply. There are a couple of critical issues with data showing those causing most of complaints and still using Osimis, listed below. Sure, I can provide you with sample(s) of raw data (cardio US/doppler) for reproducing, just let me know the address or way to send a zip.

  1. The series are not in numerical order but in alphabetical (1-10-2-26-29-3-31-etc instead of 1-2-3-10-26-29-etc.) Probably, it can be fixed by naming “01-02” instead of “1-2”
  2. Single doppler instances are grouped to separate seria, that makes them not in an order, the doctors are prefers to see them one by one in order as they taken by the US machine/technician.
    May be some configuration can help, I did not found. About non-critical things I’ll ask the daily users for comments follow on.
    Tnanks again.

Hello,

Here is my e-mail: sebastien.jodogne@uclouvain.be

Please note that my primary focus is on tasks related to research projects and scientific papers, so it may take me some time to address this.

Hi @DRH

As a workaround, while waiting for the fixes in Stone, it is still possible to enable the OsimisViewer by modifying the OE2 configuration.

Providing a “ViewersOrdering” with the osimis viewer listed should do it:

          // Defines the order in which the viewer icons should appear in the interface
          // OHIF viewers modes that are not listed here, won't appear in the interface.
          "ViewersOrdering" : [
              // "osimis-web-viewer",  // now deprecated
              "stone-webviewer",
              "ohif",
              "ohif-vr",
              "ohif-tmtv",
              "ohif-seg",
              // "ohif-micro", // currently disabled, this is still experimental in OHIF
              "meddream",
              "volview",
              "wsi"
          ],

Hello,
A couple of full studies were sent to your mail for issue reproducing. Let me know if you need any details or other data.
Thanks.

Hi Alain,
Thanks a lot! It works great. BTW, because it is an update of update of update of the very old version the config file of OE2 was almost empty.
Catching the occasion (sorry, offtop) I would like to ask an additional question:
I’m planning the migration to the new HW, so a couple of issues are unclear to me.

  • Currently all data on the one logical disk (10T) consisting from two physical (5+5). Is it any migration procedure/mechanism/instruction available?
  • New HW need the webserver installing for DICOM communication apart of ORTHANC installation. Is it any instruction (win) available for that?
    Best,
    Alex
