Orthanc-WSI brings support of whole-slide imaging for digital pathology into Orthanc, the lightweight, RESTful Vendor Neutral Archive for medical imaging.

This package contains two command-line tools to convert whole-slide images to and from DICOM. Support for proprietary file formats is available through OpenSlide. The package also contains an Orthanc plugin to display such DICOM images by any standard Web browser. The implementation follows DICOM Supplement 145.

This package provides a Python3 library of core radiation therapy modules for DICOM / DICOM RT used by dicompyler. It includes:

  • dicomparser: parse DICOM objects in an easy-to-use manner
  • dvh: Pythonic access to dose volume histogram (DVH) data
  • dvhcalc: Independent DVH calculation using DICOM RT Dose & RT Structure Set

Planunc
tools for radiotherapy treatment planning
License: needs to be clarified, registration required
Debian package not available

PLanUNC (PLUNC) is a portable, adaptable, and extensible set of software tools for radiotherapy treatment planning (RTP) that has been under active development in the Department of Radiation Oncology at the University of North Carolina (UNC) for approximately 20 years. In 1992, development work branched into separate paths at UNC (PLanUNC) and Sherouse Systems, Inc. (GRATISTM). The current UNC tools encompass the full range of RTP functions including image importing and processing, virtual simulation, dose calculation, plan evaluation, and planning for intensity modulated radiotherapy. PLanUNC source code and related software are licensed without fee to qualified facilities to support research involving new methods for planning and delivering radiation therapy, and to support RTP training for dosimetrists, physicists, radiation therapists, and radiation oncology residents.
