Very cool. This is a nice usecase where ownCloud shows its power as application development framework: In your DICOM app you wont have to care about stuff like user management, storage handling, the general web app stuff, versioning and so on, all provided by ownCloud.
Especially ownClouds sharing capabilities will give your app so much benefit right away because the oC users can easily share interesting pictures with each other and ... asking for comments? That said, a comment feature would be a good addition for sharing in general: Stick a "post-it" to a shared file telling the sharer what you think. > > I am posting to see what would it would take to add this functionality: > when a user clicks a DICOM image ( with tag .dcm), they would see > a thumbnail picture of the image.

I think that is basically a "viewer" functionality which should be not too hard to do. There are a couple of viewer apps around. Maybe the files_pdfviewer is a good example to start [1] to look into some code, but the server guys can maybe recommend a better example. I think this is an exciting idea, but I am biased because I used to work on a document management system for hospitals back in the days ;) have fun, Klaas [1] https://github.com/owncloud/files_pdfviewer > > Any thoughts or feedback on this would be very much appreciated. > > Also, is there any existing third party app that does something similar? > > Thanks! > Aaron > > > > _______________________________________________ > Devel mailing list > Devel@owncloud.org > http://mailman.owncloud.org/mailman/listinfo/devel > -- ownCloud GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, Holger Dyroff, Frank Karlitschek Schloßäckerstrasse 26a, 90443 Nürnberg, HRB 28050 (AG Nürnberg) _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@owncloud.org http://mailman.owncloud.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
