OsiriX is free open-source image processing software for managing DICOM images produced by radiology and nuclear imaging, functional imaging, 3D imaging, confocal microscopy, and molecular imaging. OsiriX also acts as a DICOM-compatible picture archiving and communication system (PACS) workstation for imaging.^[2] The product is also offered as a commercial product, with a 64-bit and an FDA-approved professional version available for purchase.

A free version of Osirix MD, called Osirix Lite, is also available to users. However, it does not allowing editing of imaging metadata, and image modifications come with a watermark. While this is good to get a feel for the parent software, it is not intended for regular medical use. OsiriX MD supports 64-bit computing and multithreading for the best performances on the most modern computers. OsiriX MD is certified and validated for clinical use in medicine (FDA, CE, ANVISA). OsiriX MD is a stand-alone software, easy to install, and doesn’t require any specific environment to work. Problem with osirix md. I have two sites on a slow VPN thst both use Osirix but we keep getting DICOM timeout errors when trying to send images to each other so.

Product history

OsiriX started out in November 2003 as a UCLA grant project of Antoine Rosset dedicated to learning about imaging informatics and writing 'a small software program to convert DICOM files to a QuickTime movie file.'^[3] The project idea expanded to an open-source project, with a SourceForge project page being created on April 16, 2004.^[4] Shortly afterwards, on April 23, a stable version 1.0 of the software was released.^[1]

In March 2009, Rosset and his colleagues created the OsiriX Foundation to promote open-source software in Medicine. A year later the group spun off a new company called Pixmeo to certify OsiriX as a FDA-approved PACS and provide commercial support for OsiriX and other open-source solutions.^[3]

Awards

In June 2005, the software was awarded 'Best Use of Open Source' and runner-up for 'Best Mac OS X Scientific Computing Solution' in the Apple Design Awards.^[5]
