✨ SIGHTVIEWER(1) ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because today we're talking about sightviewer from the manual pages, and honestly? she's iconic. 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

sightviewer — medical image viewer. yes that's it. short king behavior. 👑

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

sightviewer [OPTIONS]

that's the whole vibe. flags only, no positional args, no drama. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so sightviewer is a medical image viewer, and she comes with some seriously main character features: negatoscope, multi-planar reconstruction, and volume rendering. like, she ate and left no crumbs. 🔥

the way she handles so many image formats… we're talking DICOM, mhd, inr.gz, vtk, vti, and the list keeps going (that ... is doing a lot of heavy lifting, iykyk). ✨

reconstructions can also be imported from DICOM segmentations or VTK supported formats, and then visualized in mixed rendering with images. mixing? we love a collab. 🫶

and there are tools for measuring distances of structures in the image, plus placing landmarks. literally so useful.

last but absolutely not least: SightViewer can connect directly to a PACS, and then request, download, or upload DICOM files. periodt. 👑

  • -h, --help — display a friendly help message. and she means friendly. she's not gatekeeping. 🥰
  • --clog — enable log output to console.
