I am very pleased to announce that Apple has just approved our Cone Beam CT anatomy app. We decided to call it  iCBCT Anatomy

iCBCT Anatomy is the first CBCT app to hit the App Store. The app can run on your iPhone and iPod Touch. Get the app either by  typing its name or by searching the app store on your iPhone or iPod Touch for  keywords like: Cone Beam CT or CBCT. You can also get the app by downloading it from the link here. After the app is downloaded, plug your iPhone or iPod Touch to your computer and iTunes will install it for you. Enjoy learning anatomy landmarks on CBCT while you are on the go.

All comments are welcome and please don’t forget to rate the app!

dcm4chee is an open source PACS software that can be used for storing, managing and retrieving medical images  It fully implements the DICOM protocol designed for healthcare. It is written in Java programming language for versatility and performance. It can run under Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. It supports different databases such as: PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server..etc

dcm4chee can be integrated with PACS workstation software or viewers such as: OsiriX, K-PACS, ClearCanvas…etc

Since many dental professionals use Windows as their primary operating system it would be easier to install dcm4chee under Windows. In addition, compression libraries such as JPEG 2000 LS are still not available under Windows 64 bit and Mac OS. So we will use 32bit version of Windows as our server’s operating system. We will be using Windows 7  since it is going to be the main stream operating system ; however, the tutorial should also work for Windows Vista or XP. more…

Yes, you heard it right! Finally you’ll be able to run Flash based apps directly on your iPhone. This is one of the best exciting news coming from Adobe during the Max conference this year. The iPhone has been one of the best if not the best selling mobile phone on the market. There are many great applications created for the iPhone, with over 2 billion apps downloads from the app store. However, Flash support has been lacking from day one thanks to Apple.
