LEADTOOLS medical imaging SDKs offer .NET, Silverlight, WPF, C and C++ developers a variety of DICOM and image annotation options for developers to create applications to annotate DICOM, grayscale, bitonal and color images. LEADTOOLS medical image and DICOM annotations can be used to markup an image without changing the image data.
 Overview of LEADTOOLS Medical Annotation SDK Technology
- Image annotation available as .NET classes, C DLL, C++ classes, Silverlight classes, and WPF control.
- Add image annotation to single and multi-threaded applications.
- Native 32 and 64 bit binaries for medical image annotation applications.
- Image annotations can be added to DICOM, bitonal, color and grayscale images.
- Broad range of medical image annotation objects including audio and video.
- Protect sensitive information with powerful redaction and encryption objects.
- Control access and design rights with annotation security.
- Customize existing or create new image annotation objects.
- Medical image annotation features can be fully automated or manually implemented for maximum control.
- Annotations can be saved within a DICOM, image file or in a separate file using standard or proprietary annotation formats.
- Unlimited undo and redo levels.
Specialized Medical Imaging Annotation objects include:
DICOM Annotation Objects
Several annotation objects can be stored as LEADTOOLS annotations or converted to DICOM annotations and stored in a DICOM dataset. The following objects can be converted between LEADTOOLS and DICOM annotation types.
- Text
- Text Pointer
- Line
- Rectangle
- Ellipse
- Polyline
- Polygon
- Pointer
- Freehand
- Point
- Curve
- Closed Curve
Storage of Annotations
LEADTOOLS annotations can be stored as an external annotation file, private DICOM data elements or LEAD or Wang annotation tags within a TIFF file. Alternatively, annotations can become a permanent part of the image data.
LEADTOOLS annotations may also be exported as PDF documents with the LEADTOOLS Document Writers.
Ease of Use and Control
With LEADTOOLS, annotations can be implemented through a fully automated class or completely customized with direct calls to low level functions. The fully automated classes include ready to use floating, customizable toolbar and pop-up menus. Text strings used in automated annotation classes can be modified, translated and localized to match the end-user’s locale or to meet the specific needs of the application.
Confidence and Security
Enhanced redaction objects hide and encrypt confidential parts of medical images even in non-LEADTOOLS viewers. When combined with annotation security, these redact objects provide a means of granting user-level access to view redacted areas of an image.
