Integration

1. Run ng add ng-cornerstone
2. Edit angular.json to import icon sprites files

...
"architect": {
  "build": {
      ...
      "assets": [
        ...
        {
          "glob": "**/*",
          "input": "./node_modules/ng-cornerstone/src/assets",
          "output": "/assets/"
        }
...

3. Import ViewerModule and nc-viewer

@NgModule({
  imports: [ViewerModule.forRoot()]
})

<nc-viewer [toolList]="toolList" [imageInfo]="imageInfo" [segmentInfo]="segmentInfo" [layout]="layout"></nc-viewer>

Configuration

ToolList support follow tools:

• AngleTool,

• LengthTool,
• PanTool,
• RectangleROITool,
• StackScrollTool,
• TrackballRotateTool,
• WindowLevelTool,
• ZoomTool
• FlipV
• FlipH,

• Next
• Previous

• Axial
• Sagittal

ImageInfo

should provide studyInstanceUID, seriesInstanceUID, urlRoot, viewportType, schema like:

Orthographic and WADO-RS

{
  studyInstanceUID: '1.3.6.1.4.1.14519.5.2.1.7009.2403.334240657131972136850343327463',
  seriesInstanceUID: '1.3.6.1.4.1.14519.5.2.1.7009.2403.226151125820845824875394858561',
  urlRoot: 'https://d1qmxk7r72ysft.cloudfront.net/dicomweb',
  viewportType: Enums.ViewportType.ORTHOGRAPHIC,
  schema: RequestSchema.WadoRs,
}

Volume3D

{
  viewportType: Enums.ViewportType.VOLUME_3D;
}

Nifti

imageInfos = [
  {
    studyInstanceUID: '1.2.392.200055.5.4.80861305518.20150928153455671288',
    seriesInstanceUID: '1.2.392.200036.9142.10002202.1020869001.2.20150928174647.30151',
    urlRoot: 'http://example.com/ABD_LYMPH_006/fe0ace7a-b70a-43bc-9eb0-52359b4d2241/Images/ABD_LYMPH_006.nii',
    // urlRoot: 'http://example.com/ABD_LYMPH_006/fe0ace7a-b70a-43bc-9eb0-52359b4d2241/Images/ABD_LYMPH_006.nii.gz',
    viewportType: Enums.ViewportType.VOLUME_3D,
    // viewportType: Enums.ViewportType.ORTHOGRAPHIC,
    schema: RequestSchema.nifti,
  },
];

Layout

Layout supports 4 types:

LayoutEnum.LAYOUT_1x1, // Single viewport layout
LayoutEnum.LAYOUT_1x2, // 1 row 2 columns layout
LayoutEnum.LAYOUT_1x3, // 1 row 3 columns layout
LayoutEnum.LAYOUT_2x2, // 2 rows 2 columns layout

Characteristics of each layout type:

• LAYOUT_1x1: Single viewport layout, suitable for traditional 2D DICOM image viewing or single-perspective 3D views
• LAYOUT_1x2: 1 row 2 columns layout, can display two views simultaneously, ideal for comparative analysis
• LAYOUT_1x3: 1 row 3 columns layout, suitable for MPR (Multi-Planar Reconstruction), can display three orthogonal views simultaneously
• LAYOUT_2x2: 2 rows 2 columns layout, provides four viewport panes, best for complete visualization with 3D volume rendering + three orthogonal planes

Default viewport configuration for volume data (non-STACK type) in different layouts:

• LAYOUT_1x1: Displays the view corresponding to the viewportType specified in imageInfo
• LAYOUT_1x2: Displays sagittal view and 3D volume view
• LAYOUT_1x3: Displays sagittal, axial, and 3D volume views
• LAYOUT_2x2: Displays sagittal, axial, coronal, and 3D volume views

You can easily switch between different display modes by setting the layout property:

<nc-viewer [layout]="LayoutEnum.LAYOUT_2x2"></nc-viewer>

Troubleshooting

ng serve failed, try to edit tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "skipLibCheck": true
  }
}

Enable WASM

To enable dynamic-import cornerstoneWADOImageLoader, you can use @angular-builders/custom-webpack. The angular json should like:

"architect": {
  "build": {
    "builder": "@angular-builders/custom-webpack:browser",
    "options": {
      "customWebpackConfig": {
        "path": "./extra-webpack.config.js",
        "mergeRules": {
          "externals": "replace"
        }
      },
      "assets": [
        ...
        {
        "glob": "**/*",
        "input": "./node_modules/@cornerstonejs/dicom-image-loader/dist/dynamic-import",
        "output": "/"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

extra-webpack.config.js should like:

module.exports = {
  resolve: {
    // We use this alias and the CopyPlugin below to support using the dynamic-import version
    // of WADO Image Loader, but only when building a PWA. When we build a package, we must use the
    // bundled version of WADO Image Loader so we can produce a single file for the viewer.
    // (Note: script-tag version of the viewer will no longer be supported in OHIF v3)
    alias: {
      '@cornerstonejs/dicom-image-loader':
        '@cornerstonejs/dicom-image-loader/dist/dynamic-import/cornerstoneDICOMImageLoader.min.js',
    },
  },
};

Enable SharedBufferArray

Edit angular.json add two headers:

...
"serve": {
  ...
  "options": {
    "host": "0.0.0.0",
    "headers": {
      "Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy": "require-corp",
      "Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy": "same-origin"
    },
    ...
  },
...

You should also add the two header when deploy your app as a product.
