DICOM Library is free online medical images, signals or video files sharing and anonymizing service for educational and scientific purposes. The main idea of this library was to create and develop brand new innovative tool for medical specialists to analyze and manipulate medical data and share anonymized studies among colleagues or even get medical professionals’ second opinion from all over the world. Unique medical knowledge exchange portal was launched by SOFTNETA company in 2011.

DICOM Library uniqueness and relevance caused its popularity worldwide. The number of studies shared by using this portal has reached over 321 k studies throughout 6-year project cycle with about 230 k unique users from 204 countries. Even more than 63 k of all users (27%) are from United States. Other top countries, where DICOM Library is used the most are: India, Germany, Canada, United Kingdom, Japan, Netherlands, Russia, Italy and France. During the past 5-year period, usage of the service increased more than 9,3 times and number of new users increased 8,5 times. This project contributes to better studies’ understanding and communication between medical specialists in medical, educational and scientific areas.

This is a finished product that is being used for more than 6 years. In the nearest future, we plan to make DICOM library a platform for artificial intelligence where there will be possibility to integrate algorithms and automated diagnostics.

Additionally, we have a plan on adding user’s profiles, where user will be able to see his uploaded studies.

DICOM Library is intended for medical professionals, such as radiologists, cardiologists, physicians and other specialists, as well as for medical professors and students, who are working with studies in DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) format, i. e. DICOM files, DICOM images, signals, videos and similar data. Users have a possibility to share anonymized medical DICOM images online with their colleagues quickly. Also, there are possibilities to export into different format (for example, show studies in learning class).
