Welcome to pacsanini#

pacsanini 🎻 is a package designed to help with the collection of DICOM files and the extraction of DICOM tags (metadata) for structuring purposes.

pacsanini's functionalities come out of a desire to facilitate research in medical imagery by easing the process of data collection and structuring. The two main pain points for this are:

  • acquiring data from a PACS
  • extracting metadata from DICOM files in research-ready formats (eg: csv)
  • visualize collected DICOM data

The project seeks to target medical/research professionals that are not necessarily familiar with coding but wish to obtain data sets and software engineers that wish to build applications with a certain level of abstraction.
