New in Orthanc 0.8.5 (Dec 3, 2014)

  • Update README.md

New in Orthanc 0.7.1 (Oct 31, 2013)

  • This maintenance release features better compatibility in the ZIP archives that are downloaded from Orthanc (notably for Mac OS X), an important refactoring of the CMake options, and support for big-endian architectures.

New in Orthanc 0.7.0 (Oct 28, 2013)

  • This release introduces support of Query/Retrieve into Orthanc, turning it into a real mini-PACS server.
  • Technically speaking, Orthanc now acts as a C-Find SCP, C-Move SCP, and C-Store SCP.
  • It is therefore possible for standard DICOM tools or viewers (such as OsiriX, 3D Slicer, or Ginkgo CADx) to retrieve medical images directly from Orthanc.

New in Orthanc 0.5.2 (May 9, 2013)

  • This release features "bulk" Store-SCU (sending of several DICOM instances with the same DICOM connexion) to improve the performance of DICOM routing.
  • It also introduces experimental Lua scripting (for filtering incoming requests).
