Dicoogle Client

This is a web service client API to Dicoogle, the open-source PACS archive, for use in JavaScript applications. This library is compatible with browser-based JavaScript and Node.js. A CLI application for searching medical images in Dicoogle is also included (dicoogle-query).

This library intends to be fully compatible with Dicoogle versions 2 and 3, and may be updated as future versions of Dicoogle are released.

Using the JavaScript API

The full API is documented here. Documentation was built from our Typescript definitions, which are also available.

Quick Start

import dicoogleClient from "dicoogle-client";

// obtain a dicoogle access object
const Dicoogle = DicoogleClient("localhost:8080");

// if required, login to the system before using
await Dicoogle.login('admin', 'mysecretpassword');

// Ok! Start using Dicoogle!
let outcome = await Dicoogle.search("PatientName:Pinho^Eduardo", {provider: 'lucene'});
// use outcome
const {elapsedTime, results} = outcome;
for (const r of result) {
  console.log(`> ${r.uri}`);
}

Using the CLI client

Install this package globally (npm install -g dicoogle-client), then use dicoogle-query.

Options:

• -h, --help : show this help
