Is there a Linux application that will display a dicom image file?
Bob
`sudo yum search DICOM` https://www.google.com/?#q=dicom+linux+viewer
Sorry for being a smartass. Looks like aeskulap is what you're searching for.

No, I might deserve that. Yumex already found and installed it by the time I received your e-mail. Now I will have to find instructions on how to use it since it allows me to select a file but isn't displaying anything?
Sorry for raising the noise level here.
Thanks,
Bob
I had to go find the CD I had with dicom files on it.
I was not able to get anything selecting the diacomdir file...I had to go into dicom dir and go down to where there were real files (select show all files) and then was able to display the image by selecting each image that was in several different dirs.

wine -> RadiAnt -> DICOMDIR ~/.wine $ man 1 wine

I find the best way for me to view the images is to view the list of image files in the file manager [Thunar], select the one I want and then open it using aeskulap. Then "clicking" on the image brings up the start/stop button for display of the live video action.
I looked at the other applications suggested but found none of those available via yum and since aeskulap seems to work well and did what I needed that's as far as I got so far ...
Thank you,
Bob

Yes, I think lots of stuff just ignores DICOMDIR and scans image files directly, it's also not an image file itself (though it is another type of DICOM file) and only used when images are on 'DICOM media' (which I think amounts to tape or CD), so lots of viewers probably aren't equipped to handle it. Some applications will let you specify a directory to load as an alternative to individual files.

Cool, haven't used that one before, will have to check it out.

Yes, though there are more that will display other formats that you can generate from DICOM. Many DICOM files are single slices/images of a series. Others are MRIcron http://www.mccauslandcenter.sc.edu/mricro/mricron/ - includes viewer for NIfTI files (.nii/.nii.gz) and converter dcm2nii. For most uses I'd give it arguments of -r n -x n along with whatever naming arguments are needed. N.B. slightly odd usage in that all -? arguments must come before the directory to be converted.
MCverter http://lcni.uoregon.edu/~jolinda/MRIConvert/ another converter application
http://fsl.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/fslwiki/Licence Includes the viewer FSLview which will read NIfTI. Lots of other neuroimaging tools included. Not Open Source, but source provided and free for non-commercial use.
http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/ Java based viewer, plugin based. Not great for neuroimaging, but will load NIfTI and I think there are DICOM plugins too.
http://www.brain.org.au/software/mrtrix/ MRtrix, aimed at diffusion imaging, but includes DICOM converter and viewer.
There's also SPM, but only if you have access to Matlab.

Thanks to all who responded to my query. I probably should have looked harder before asking but the responses are all helpful.
I yum installed "aeskulap" which works but it's operation does not seem very intuitive to me. I have had more success displaying the images after copying just the image files from the disc to my nfs server.
These are images of a heart catheterization I had done several weeks ago and display as video clips showing the injection of the radio opaque dye to outline the blood vessels, everything is moving as the heart beats, surprising detail, interesting to see ... Just received the disk yesterday and I need to play with it some more, perhaps try another viewer? This is a new thing for me and will take some time.
And yes, they did include a Windows viewer and I have a Windows VM somewhere but prefer not to mess with that if there is an Linux alternative.
Tnx,
Bob

Btw, R has a package called fmri which allows one to read in DICOM files. Though I am not very clear if the goal is to watch a video or to analyze the data. If the second, then R will be useful.
Many thanks. Ranjan
