Additional features include: * Rendering of 3D images either from a multi-page image or a set of 2D images as input * Ability to read waveform data from multiple modalities into vector representation * Support for Presentation State Objects to allow consistent display of images on various devices and media as well as storage of specific display settings * Storage of annotations and additional tags such as patient/study information * Complete API for data set creation and removal, including the modification, addition, and removal of data elements * Real-time contrast adjustment using Window level, rescale Verb 1. rescale - establish on a new scale resize - change the size of; make the size more appropriate scale down - reduce proportionally; "The model is scaled down" scale up - increase proportionally; "scale up the model" , and gamma correction transforms * Support for the International Color Consortium The International Color Consortium was formed in 1993 by eight industry vendors in order to create a universal color management system that would function transparently across all operating systems and software packages. (ICC ICC See: International Chamber of Commerce ) color management specification for mapping RGB color spaces An RGB color space is any additive color space based on the RGB color model. RGB is shorthand for Red, Green, Blue. RGB is a convenient color model for computer graphics because the human visual system works in a way that is similar—though to CMYK (Cyan Magenta Yellow blacK) The color space used for commercial printing and most color computer printers. In theory, cyan, magenta and yellow (CMY) can print all colors, but inks are not pure and black comes out muddy. * Rapid porting from current Windows forms applications to zero-footprint Web form applications * A complete set of annotation marks (text, line, polyline, ruler, etc.,) and the ability to import/export these marks to XML XML in full Extensible Markup Language. Markup language developed to be a simplified and more structural version of SGML. It incorporates features of HTML (e.g., hypertext linking), but is designed to overcome some of HTML's limitations. files "As more and more enterprises embrace the Microsoft .NET Framework, the ISV (Independent Software Vendor) A person or company that develops software.
