DBlni Introduction

The DBlni is a PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) developed at the Neuroimaging Laboratory to organize and archive DICOM images. The software consists of two standalone interfaces:

  1. DBlniAdd: A tool for adding new DICOM, NIfTI, or SPAR/SDAT files to the server repository and updating the metadata in the database. DBlniAdd reads the DICOM metadata from all files in a source folder, organizes the files using a user-friendly naming convention, and archives essential image information efficiently.

  2. DBlniFinder: The client interface for accessing the database. It features a powerful image search engine, enables visualization of selected files via the DBlni Viewer, and supports direct downloads to a specified local folder.

The software is currently compatible with Windows and macOS and does not rely on any paid dependencies.

The DBlni has currently the following functionalities:

 

DBlni Finder:

  • Smart Images search engine with 10 protocol/image filters

  • Enable the creation of work groups of images for further download or visualisation.

  • Enable the visualisation of 2D, 3D, or 4D DICOM, NIfTI and SPAR/SDAT files,

  • Enable the direct downloading of images from the server to the local machine.

  • The interface has three sub-tools:

    1. DICOM Renamer and Anonymizer

    2. Uncompress tool

    3. DICOM to NIfTI Converter (based on Chris Rhoerden's dcm2niix)

 

DBlni Add

  • Creates the database and the image repository

  • Include new images to the database and repository from a source DICOM/NIfTI/SPAR-SDAT folder (external or internal disks or even network sources.

  • The DICOM files are renamed to user-friendly filename format, and all data are compacted to increased storage capabilities.

  • The images are stored in the repository with and smart and intuitive folder tree, aiming to a maximum speed to find and download. This is also relevant for backup or even manual access or managing of the data.
