MedicalViewerLoader Class

Example 





Members 
Loads an image series and information about it and initializes a Leadtools.MedicalViewer.MedicalViewer control.
Object Model
MedicalViewerLoader ClassSeriesLayout ClassOverlayTagCollection ClassOverlayTag Class
Syntax
public class MedicalViewerLoader : MedicalViewerLoaderBase 
'Declaration
 
Public Class MedicalViewerLoader 
   Inherits MedicalViewerLoaderBase
'Usage
 
Dim instance As MedicalViewerLoader
public sealed class MedicalViewerLoader : MedicalViewerLoaderBase 
function Leadtools.Medical.Workstation.Loader.MedicalViewerLoader()
public ref class MedicalViewerLoader : public MedicalViewerLoaderBase 
Remarks

When streaming images the MedicalViewerLoader will use the low-memory usage feature of the Leadtools.MedicalViewer.MedicalViewer control. This allows images for cells that are not visible to be unloaded from memory and then re-loaded when they are once again visible.

Example
 
Private viewer As New MedicalViewer()
