11. Radiology
  1. From @Juan David Pastas (Unlicensed)
    1. Images would be saved (and returned) by dcm4chee.
    2. What we develop is going to show two panels:
      1. OpenMRS configuration, where the user puts the IP address of OpenMRS server
      2. dcm4chee configuration, where the user user puts any required IP address/es and ports
      after that, Radiology module would communicate over HTTP or DICOM (with OpenMRS or dcm4chee) to make a CRUD over patients, orders and observations.
    3. We are not going to use any part of the previous radiology module.
    4. Note: As what we are doing is a middleware that communicates in HTTP and DICOM, is independent of the programming language we use, in this point I would like to use Rails.
  2. Will use Osirix/Oviyam/Weasis depending on which device we are using
  3. From @John V Stoecker (Unlicensed):
    1. Determined that saving images on file system is best solution for now.
    2. Juan + Maria (new developer for Radiology back end) are still determining how best to connect dcm4chee radiology server to OpenMRS.
