Uploaders

Dr Craig Hacking ◉ ◈ and A.Prof Frank Gaillard ◉ ◈ et al.

A number of uploaders are available to help you create cases faster than by merely using the browser.

Using our application programming interface (API), third parties can develop applications to automate uploading cases from PACS or from other settings.

Available uploaders

Horos/Osirix uploader

This is a Mac plug-in for Horos or OsiriX (see below) that allows you to quickly upload selected studies / images to your Radiopaedia account as draft cases or add images to an existing case you own (public, unlisted or draft).

Although the plug-in will work equally well with both Horos and Osirix, we strongly encourage you to use Horos and not to use OsiriX Lite. Why? Well, not only is Horos free and awesomely open-source (which we love) but it also does not put an ugly red "not for medical usage" at the bottom of each image. If you have the paid version of OsiriX then that is fine as the red text does not appear.

Features

multiple studies, series, images
create a new draft case or send to an existing case
automatic anonymisation
higher image quality than native Horos / Osirix image export
automatic gender and age including day, week, month for paediatrics
add series titles to findings (optional)
add day numbering to studies (optional)

If you haven't done so already, first download Horos from here.

Then download the Radiopaedia plugin from here.

Radiopaedia vendor neutral uploader

This is a stand-alone open source project started by Radiopaedia and coded by Andy Le. It is designed to be installed on its own server and only needs query-retrieve rights on your PACS database.

It will then take care of the rest, anonymising cases and sending them to your Radiopaedia account as draft cases.
