Showcase® CD/DVD Viewer Basics
During the export procedure, the DICOM Showcase viewer is automatically written
to the disc along with the selected exams. Showcase allows you to review the
images on any
PC with a CD/DVD drive (see “PC Requirements” below) that can
read CD-R or DVD+R discs.
NOTE: Read the Showcase documentation that comes on the export CD/DVD for
the latest instructions to use the Showcase viewer.
When the CD/DVD containing the exported studies is inserted into a PC, the
ShowCase viewer automatically runs directly from the CD/DVD. No DICOM
viewing software on the PC is required to view the studies. Currently, the user
interface is in English only.
Using the Showcase viewer, you can Export (save) still images into JPG, TIFF, or
BMP formats and clips into AVI formats. You can also send Print requests, crop off
the patient's name, and Annotate the images before you Export or Print.
IMPORTANT: Multiframe images captured on the ZONARE ultrasound system
require the latest version of ShowCase, which is included with the release.
Multiframe clips are optimized and include a couple of private tags that are valid
DICOM tags but may not be handled correctly on all systems. Versions of
ShowCase prior to release 5.2.3 are unable to display the clips.
Other features:
• Study directory that shows all studies residing on the CD/DVD listed by
patient name, ID, study type, and number of images
• Selectable image sizes-- thumbnail to full screen
• Contrast / gamma control
• Study comparisons: right/left or top/bottom
• Stress echo displays by stage and by view
• Drag & drop rearrangement of images while viewing (cannot save)
• Temporary cropping and annotating of images (can save to disc)
• Display of an image’s DICOM elements
• Viewing of Calc / Structured Report data, if applicable
