TODO

• Tools that work with a single image
  • WW/WL
  • Zoom
  • Pan
  • Length
  • Rectangle ROI
  • Elliptical ROI
  • Pixel Probe
  • Angle
• Tools that work with a stack of images
  • Scroll
  • Cine / Playing Clips
  • Cross reference lines (not implemented yet)
• Synchronization tools
  • Stack by image # (not implemented yet)
  • Stack by image position (not implemented yet)
  • Image by zoom and pan (not implemented yet)
• Support for binding each tool to different mouse inputs:
  • Left mouse button
  • Middle mouse button
  • Right mouse button
  • Mouse Wheel
• Support for touch based gestures
  • Drag
  • Pinch
• Tool framework that can be used to simplify development of new tools that work in a consistent manner with the included tools
• Provides API to access measurement data for serialization purposes (e.g. save measurements to database)

This project uses grunt to build the software.

NodeJs - click to visit web site for installation instructions.

grunt-cli

npm install -g grunt-cli

bower

npm install -g bower

Update dependencies (after each pull):

npm install

bower install

Running the build:

grunt

Automatically running the build and unit tests after each source change:

grunt watch

• framework support for multiple images (e.g. select ww/wc once and have it apply to a group of enabled elements)
• cross reference lines (requires stack)
• Updating related handles while resizing (e.g. resize top left handle of a rect and update the bottom left and top right as it changes)
• measurement calibration tool
• freehand roi tool
• stack synchronizer tool (scroll in one stack and the other synchronized stacks will follow) - for comparison
• image synchroinizer tool (pan/zoom in one image and the other synchronized images will follow) - for comparison
• Config object that allows tool appearance to be customized (e.g. line color, text color, handle size, shape, etc)
