RULES & GUIDELINES Please remove any patient/institution identifiers before posting medical images. De-Identified Health Information. There are no restrictions on the use or disclosure of de-identified health information.
The normal human sound range is from 16 Hz to something approaching 15-20,000 Hz (in children and young adults). Beyond this upper limit, the mechanical vibration is known as ultrasound. The frequencies used in therapy are typically between 1.0 and 3.0 MHz (1 MHz = 1 million cycles per second).
De-identified health information neither identifies nor provides a reasonable basis to identify an individual. See wiki for example. Admissible content for this subreddit includes the following: I. Medical Imaging submissions.
These include quality images from any radiology modality. Please make sure to include any relevant information/history in your title or as a comment. Specific hosting suggestions, format, and proper use of spoilers, can be found in the II.
News content, relevant links, or professional/patient interactions. Not all submissions are medical images. You may submit relevant news articles addressing developments in the field, links and images depicting the field of radiology, free continuing education opportunities, and interactions you or someone else might have experienced with an imaging professional or while working in the field. Published articles or case reports.
Academic journal articles or online publications addressing the field, developments, etc. Please make sure your link is publicly accessible, and does not require a log in for viewing. Patient cases. Please include relevant as your link. Additional case info should be added as a comment to your post. If this is a personal imaging exam, please note the disclaimer below in the Submission troubleshoot and disclaimers section.
Common questions & advice. There is a weekly thread stickied to the top of the subreddit for these types of submissions. Any career advice, student advice, or generic questions posted outside of this thread will be removed. The following submissions / comments are NOT allowed. NO MEDICAL ADVICE. This includes posting / commenting on personal imaging exams without known or established findings, recommendations for alternative course of treatment, or any other inquiry that should be answered by your physician / provider. No product, company, or general advertising.

Did you know? Was subreddit of the day for Feb 25th, 2013!.
'Skeleton alien' logo design by 2012. Hi, I am trying to find the ideal software for archiving ultrasound images and clips. In the past (10 years ago), I was converting them to JPEG and avi files but it wasn't practical as my ultrasound device didn't create folders for patients, so it was all mixed up. Then I started recording DICOM files and I have 4-5 years worth of DICOMs containing my patients' clips and images. At our institution we have a DICOM viewer programmed by a local software house and it is mainly used for CT and MRI and it really struggles when it tries to playback large ultrasound clips (it may not play them back at all if they are longer than 10-15 seconds and when it does, the playback speed is very slow).
I don't want to use the same software at home. Do you have any suggestions for ultrasound specific DICOM viewers which can also be used as database (where I can add the patient's diagnosis, remarks, additional imaging modalities, etc)? I don't have a Mac, so no Osirix for me. Thanks. I'll assume for the sake of argument you are looking for free/open source options and that storage space isn't an issue. Is pretty easy to install on Windows for the PACS part of the equation.
It also has some extremely basic viewing capabilities and is very easy on resources (you'd hardly know it's there). Is a bit more involved to setup, but it can act as a both a viewer and archive at the same time. Even though you may see DicomViewer.exe in the download section of the link, think of it as a viewer plus a mini-PACS. More than sufficient I suspect for your needs, a bit heavy resource wise.
Also, can always install the 'DicomViewer + DicomServer' elements if you want a pure PACS and Viewer type of setup. Is a crazy robust PACS server, but installation is anything but simple. There are numerous viewers available for it as well.
Archive name and parameters dialog: general options Archive name and parameters dialog: general options The dialog contains the following items: Destination archive name Enter the name manually or press the 'Browse' button to browse for the archive name. You may enter a name containing a disk letter or the full path to the archive.
Profiles Opens the menu allowing to, and select. Compression profiles allow you to quickly restore previously saved compression options or to specify default options for this dialog.
WinRAR provides a few predefined profiles optimized for creating e-mail attachments, backup files and other operations. Please see the topic for more information. Archive format (RAR, RAR5, ZIP) Select format of newly created archive.
You can specify to use RAR 4.x compatible format, for latest RAR 5.0 format or to create ZIP archive. Depending on archive format selected, some advanced options not supported by target format will be disabled. If you update an existing archive, this option is ignored and WinRAR uses the format of updating archive.
Compression method Choose between 'Store', 'Fastest', 'Fast', 'Normal', 'Good' and 'Best' methods. 'Store' writes files to archive at maximum speed and without compression. All following methods compress data, providing a higher compression ratio and lower speed when going from 'Fastest' to 'Best'. Dictionary size This is a size of memory area used to find and compress repeated patterns in processing data. Larger compression dictionary sometimes allows to improve the compression ratio of big files, especially when creating a archive.
But larger dictionary also decreases the compression speed and increases memory requirements. Compression needs about 6 times more memory than dictionary size. Decompression takes slightly more memory than just 1 dictionary size. If you expect your archive to be decompressed on all kinds of computers, including those with small memory, better avoid maximum dictionary sizes and select something in the middle, like 32 or 64 MB.
Maximum dictionary size for RAR 4.x archives is 4 MB. RAR 5.0 format allows to create archives with up to 1 GB dictionary in 64 bit WinRAR version and up to 256 MB in 32 bit WinRAR (up to 128 MB in Windows XP x86). Decompression needs less memory than compression, so both 32 and 64 bit WinRAR can decompress archives with all dictionary sizes including 1 GB provided that computer has more than 1 GB of available memory.
ZIP format dictionary size is fixed to 32 KB. Size in ' Split to volumes, size' field If you wish to create volumes, enter a size of single volume here. You can choose size units in the drop down list to the right of size field. In this list 'B' means bytes, 'KB' - kilobytes, 'MB' - megabytes and 'GB' - gigabytes. It is allowed to enter decimal fractions using the decimal symbol defined in Windows regional settings. Also it is possible to select units by appending one or two characters to volume size string. Lowercase 'k' means kilobytes, uppercase 'K' - thousands of bytes, 'm' - megabytes, 'M' - millions of bytes, 'g' - gigabytes, 'G' - billions (milliards) of bytes.
'KB', 'MB' and 'GB' always mean kilobytes, megabytes and gigabytes regardless of character case. Volume size input field has the associated drop down list containing previously entered, predefined and defined by user values. You can use this list to quickly select any of items it contains. This list can be customized with dialog. To activate it press 'Define volume sizes' button in dialog. If you are archiving to removable disks and using RAR format, you may select 'Autodetect' from the list and WinRAR will choose the volume size automatically for each new volume. Update mode.
Add and replace files (default). Always replace archived files, which have same name as files to be added.
Always add those files, which are not present in the archive. Add and update files. Replace archived files only if added files are newer. Always add those files, which are not present in the archive. Freshen existing files only. Replace archived files only if added files are newer. Do not add those files, which are not present in the archive.
Ask before overwrite. Ask for confirmation to overwrite archived files, which have same name as files to be added. Always add those files, which are not present in the archive. Skip existing files. Do not replace archived files, which have same name as files to be added. Always add those files, which are not present in the archive.
Synchronize archive contents. Replace archived files only if added files are newer. Always add those files, which are not present in the archive. Delete those archived files, which are not present in the added files. It looks similar to creating a new archive, but with the one important exception: if no files are modified since a last backup, the operation is performed much faster than the creation of a new archive.
Delete files after archiving Remove successfully archived source files. Create SFX archive Creates a archive (exe file), which can be unpacked without using any other programs. You may select the type of SFX module and set a few other SFX parameters like a destination folder in the of this dialog. Create solid archive Creates a archive.
Usually gives higher compression ratios, but applies some restrictions. Read the description of for more details. Add recovery record Adds the, which may help to restore an archive in case of damage.
You can specify the recovery record size in of this dialog. Default value is 3% of total archive size. Test archived files Test files after archiving.
This option is especially useful if 'Delete files after archiving' is also enabled. In this case files will be deleted only if the archive had been successfully tested. Lock archive A locked archive cannot be modified by WinRAR.
You may lock important archives to prevent accidental modification. Set password Set a password to archived files. It is valid only during a single archiving operation and overrides the default password entered in. If the default password is present, it will be restored after the archiving operation is completed. If the default password was absent before starting archiving, it also will be absent after finishing the operation.
