Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) is the dominant standard for medical imaging data. DICOM-compliant devices and the data they produce are generally designed for clinical use and often do not match the needs of users in research or clinical trial settings. DicomBrowser is software designed to ease the transition between clinically oriented DICOM tools and the specialized workflows of research imaging. It supports interactive loading and viewing of DICOM images and metadata across multiple studies and provides a rich and flexible system for modifying DICOM metadata. Users can make ad hoc changes in a graphical user interface, write metadata modification scripts for batch operations, use partly automated methods that guide users to modify specific attributes, or combine any of these approaches. DicomBrowser can save modified objects as local files or send them to a DICOM storage service using the C-STORE network protocol. DicomBrowser is open-source software, available for download at http://nrg.wustl.edu/software/dicom-browser.
医学数字成像和通信（DICOM）是医学影像数据的主要标准。符合 DICOM 标准的设备及其生成的数据通常是为临床使用而设计的，并且通常不符合研究或临床试验环境中用户的需求。DicomBrowser 是一款旨在简化临床导向的 DICOM 工具与研究成像的专业工作流程之间的过渡的软件。它支持在多个研究中交互式加载和查看 DICOM 图像和元数据，并提供了一个丰富而灵活的系统来修改 DICOM 元数据。用户可以在图形用户界面中进行特定更改，编写用于批处理操作的元数据修改脚本，使用部分自动化方法指导用户修改特定属性，或结合使用这些方法。DicomBrowser 可以将修改后的对象保存为本地文件，或使用 C-STORE 网络协议将其发送到 DICOM 存储服务。DicomBrowser 是开源软件，可在以下网址下载：http://nrg.wustl.edu/software/dicom-browser。
