OE2 compatibility with the Neuroimaging plugin

General

Hi,

Sorry, my name is probably showing up too much in this forum as I am working away with Orthanc (and loving it). So thanks for all of your work creating something awesome.

I have installed and enabled the Neuroimaging plugin, but I notice that the (yellow) button to “Export to NIfTI” only shows up for a selected series within the Legacy UI. Is it possible to get an icon for exporting a series to Nifti in OE2?

Hi @mattwrkntn

This is something that is actually already in our TODO list.

Best,

Alain

Hi @mattwrkntn

FYI, this has been implemented in this commit and will be available in the next release (or in the mainline binaries while waiting for the next release).

Best,

Alain.

I am using the mainline binary for the Neuro plugin but I do not see the button to export to Nifti. Do I need to enable something in the config file?

Any messages in the browser console dev tools ? Something like “no PixelSpacingBetweenSlices or SliceThickness → not possible to export to nifti”. If not, share a sample image

The yellow “Export to NIfTI” button is available (and works) for a given CT series in the Legacy UI, but for the exact same patient/series in OE2, there simply isn’t a button visible to try to export the series.

Hi everybody,
I’m using the official orthancteam/orthanc Docker image, version 26.4.0, and I would like to try the features provided by the Neuroimaging plugin. I am a bit confused about how this plugin should be enabled. I tried setting

NEURO_PLUGIN_ENABLED: "true"

in the environment section of my docker-compose.yml, but the plugin does not appear either in Orthanc Explorer 2 or in the legacy Orthanc Explorer.

What I find unusual is that inside the container I can see the Neuroimaging plugin listed in the plugins-available folder, but I do not see the corresponding .so file copied into /usr/share/orthanc/plugins.

Is the Neuroimaging plugin supposed to be pre-enabled in the official Docker image, or does it need to be installed or mounted manually?

How can I actually use this feature?

Thanks in advance,
Lorenzo

If you run
docker run -p 8045:8042 -e NEURO_PLUGIN_ENABLED=true orthancteam/orthanc:26.4.0 and then, open http://localhost:8045/ui/app/#/settings you’ll see that the neuro plugin is loaded and enabled.
