This document provides a guide to using the medical imaging software OsiriX. It discusses how to open and view DICOM images, perform multi-planar reconstruction, volume rendering, image fusion, and other functions. Key points covered include how to customize windows and toolbars, use navigational shortcuts, perform measurements and create regions of interest, synchronize views, and adjust rendering settings such as shading and color lookup tables. The guide provides an overview of the software's main viewing and post-processing capabilities in 3 sentences or less.

Designed and developed by Insforia Technologies, the Animation Studio allows you to develop animations on a 30x32 mono-colour LED display unit. You can make personal animations, or download ready-made animations directly on the grid panel. For better results, it is recommended (while downloading animations from different source) that the resolution of each frame be maintained as 30 pixels x 32 pixels. If higher resolution images are loaded, the software will automatically adjust them to 30x32 pixels.

58. This 2D MPRViewer allows generating a MPR slice in any position and orientation through the
3D volume.This mode shows three viewing ports.
In the picture above, the two on the left are labeled A and B.The third, on the right, is labeled C.

59. A

The primary purpose of the A and B view ports is to specify the plane that will be
shown in the C view port. The A and B are partially obscured by lines used specify
the plane to be seen in C.
The C is designed for diagnostic viewing and the other two view ports are primarily
to specify what is to be shown in C. (These lines cannot be hidden.)

other MPR interfaces are expecting.
•A shows a blue line which corresponds to the orientation of C,
and contains a red line that corresponds to B.
•B shows only a blue line that also corresponds to C.
•C has no lines.

61. The specifying A will show the original images in the plane that they were originally
acquired, most commonly the axial plane. You can scroll through these images to choose
the one that you want to work off. The specifying B shows planes that are orthogonal to A.
If A is axial, B will show sagittal, and C will be showing coronal reconstruction ( blue line).

62. To see a clean sagittal image, you want to grab the blue line in A and swing it 90
degrees. At this point, the C will show a sagittal image.
You cannot grab the red line to do this rotation. (Only the blue line can be
grabbed. )
You can move the intersection of the two lines by grabbing within the red circle
(center the point of rotation).

also choose to produce a cross

6) Another window will appear
with your curved MPR cut.
4) Select the 2-D Curved MPR
option from the 2D-3D menu.

77. This mode shows three orthogonal planes.
Green lines on each window show the location of the other two orthogonal
planes.
2D Orthogonal MPR
78. You can move the green indicator lines freely in any of the view ports.
Zooming and windowing will affect all the ports simultaneously.
A scroll wheel will work in any of the windows to move back and forth through the stack.
If you are content to be viewing only the orthogonal planes, this mode is easier and more
informative than the 2D MPR.
79. It is important to realize that hitting the space bar allows toggling through three states.The
fi
rst state shows only the green lines, the second state adds intersecting hairlines to show
the common point of the three view ports and the third state hides all the lines.

82. 3-D reconstructions
OsiriX supports four 3D reconstruction
modules:
1)Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP)
2)Volume Rendering
3) Surface Rendering
4)Virtual Endoscopy
83. Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP)
This reconstruction uses a ‘ray-tracing’ technique to identify
which pixel has the maximum intensity on each ray.
This technique is useful for contrast MRIs or CTs, and bone CTs.
85. Volume Rendering
Use a ‘ray-tracing’ technique to apply a transparency/opacity to each pixel depending on their
position and their intensity.
Nice images of soft tissues for MRI and CT.
Most used 3D technique and will produce the nicest images in many situations.

133. If the current image does not contain the appropriate pixel size,
the ROI data can be calibrated by manually setting the pixel size.
Once a ROI is outlined, it is possible to set the pixels inside or
outside the ROI to a certain value.
If you want to erase all data outside a region of interest on a CT
image for example you have to set the pixels to lowest possible
value (black) of -1000 Hounds
fi
eld value for example.
ROI Segmentation
136. Repulsor tool
This allows to re-shape irregular regions of interest
by pushing the contour with a circle shape repulsor.
The diameter of the circle is bigger if you start far from the contour
and smaller if you start closer.
137. 3D ROI
• Set of 2D ROIs

• Set default ROI name

• Posibility to compute/visualize the volume
138. Manual Segmentation
You don’t need to draw a ROI on each slice.
OsiriX will interpolate the missing slices in
the volume computation.
144. Region Growing
Region Growing technique allows to initiate an automatic
image segmentation starting from a given “seed” point and
expanding to include all the pixels that are within a given
range of density values.
145. Region Growing
If the current image does not contain the appropriate pixel
size, calibrated by manually setting the pixel size.
146. Region Growing
1. Select 2D/3D Growing Region

The result is either a

You can generate a new series with changing
pixels of the inside or outside.
150. Region Growing
If the current image does not contain
the appropriate pixel size, calibrated by
manually setting the pixel size.
Once a ROI is outlined it is possible to
set the pixels inside or outside the ROI
to a certain value. Inside pixel=1000
Outside pixel= -1000
If you want to erase all data outside a
ROI on a CT image for example you
have to set the pixels to lowest possible

153. Exporting DICOM images
The Export menu item has a submenu to allow speci
fi
cation of the particular image
format (TIFF, JPEG etc.).
To export a single image, you can either select Export from the File menu or
press ‘(Command⌘-C’ to copy it to the clipboard.
Using the default preferences, OsiriX will export the image as it appears on the screen --
same size, zoom, rotation, window level, etc.
You can
fi
nd the exact size of the image on the upper left corner of the window:
The exported image resolution will be 1266 x 709
154. The same principle applies for images sequence.
Select Export to Quicktime from the Export submenu or click on the Quicktime button
from the toolbar.With Quicktime export, you have the possibility to export the image fusion
dimension of the 4D viewer dimension, if these modes are activated:
Select which ‘dimension’ you want to export
155. Exporting DICOM images
You can export your DICOM images as TIFF, JPEG, RAW or DICOM images or as a Quicktime
sequence.
This allows you to capture selected images in a format that will allow you to bring them into,
for example, iPhoto, iTunes, iMovie, Keynote, or PowerPoint presentations or import them into
a Microsoft Word document.
