X-ray Viewer Online

Why Use an Online X-ray Viewer?

Digital X-rays have largely replaced traditional film radiography, but the resulting DICOM files are no easier for patients to open at home. Whether you received a chest X-ray at an emergency department, a dental panoramic at your dentist, or a skeletal X-ray at an orthopedic clinic, the DICOM files on your CD or patient portal require specialized viewing software. Our online viewer gives you instant access.

X-ray DICOM files contain photometric interpretation data that determines whether the image should be displayed as a positive (dark bones on light background) or inverted image. Our viewer automatically reads this metadata and renders the radiograph with the correct polarity and contrast — producing an image that looks like what the radiologist sees on their workstation.

Orthopedic patients frequently need to share X-rays between their primary physician, orthopedic surgeon, physical therapist, and insurance company. Converting X-ray DICOM files to viewable images eliminates the need for each recipient to have DICOM software, streamlining communication across the care team.
