ECG dcm file not viewable in orthanc?

Hello,

I have converted .SCP ecg file to .DCM file using C#Ecg toolkit. I could upload it to orthanc successfully but not viewable. I am attaching my files for your view. As a beginner your guidance would be very helpful for me.

patient9.dcm (121.0 KB)

Thanks,

Hi,

Your sample file seems to display fine in Weasis and David Clunie’s dicom3tools/dciodvfy shows it is valid DICOM for the most part:

But not all DICOM viewers will display ECGs. You need to make sure the viewer you select is capable of handling DICOM ECGs.

Hello Todd,

Thanks for your reply. Stone web viewer is the default web viewer in the orthanc. Is there any possibility to change the web viewer plugin in orthanc??

I had a client who had similar files. They did display in the Weasis viewer, and yes, you can integrate the Weasis viewer with Orthanc.

Hello scotti,

Please guide me on how to integrate Weasis viewer. I tried storing its plugin files in the orthanc folder but its all in .jar orthanc accepts only .dll files. As a beginner I am really struggling.

I request you to kindly share if you have any documentation on how to integrate weasis in orthanc.

Thanks.

Hello,

I confirm that as of release 2.6, the Stone Web viewer doesn’t support the rendering of ECG, even though we have plans to do this.

The answer is already on this forum: Orthanc + DICOM-web = Weasis - #16 by jodogne
