Ginkgo CADx is an advanced DICOM viewer and dicomizer that can also be used to convert png, jpeg, bmp, pdf, tiff to DICOM files.
The version developed here is a continuation of the now abandoned free version developed by MetaEmotion:

Ginkgo CADx is licensed under the terms of the Lesser GNU Public Licence 3.
To build Ginkgo CADx the following software packages are required:
- ITK (>= 4.8)
- VTK (>= 6.2)
- wxWidgets (>= 3.0.1)
- DCMTK (>= 3.6.1-20150924)
- A C++ compiler that supports the C++11 standard
- CMake
With these prerequisites available run cmake on the Ginkgo CADx source tree and then use the selected build system to build the software. After the software was sucessfully compiled run the install target.
The original Ginkgo CADx implementation was done with cross-platform compatibility in mind, i.e. the software should compile on MS Windows, Mac OS X, and flavours of Linux. However, currently the main development platforms are Debian GNU/Linux and Gentoo Linux using the GNU gcc compiler tool chain. Hence incompatibilities may creep in and bug reports with fixes for other platforms are very welcome.
The following packages must be installed in order to compile it:
chrpath
cmake
libcairo2-dev
libcurl4-gnutls-dev
libdcmtk-dev
libfftw3-dev
libfreetype6-dev
libgtk2.0-dev
libinsighttoolkit4-dev
libjsoncpp-dev
libmysqlclient-dev
libsqlite3-dev
libssl-dev
libvtk6-dev
libwrap0-dev
libwxgtk3.0-dev
libxml2-dev
libgdcm-tools
On Debian Stretch and Sid these packages can be installed by simply running
apt build-dep ginkgocadx
