The Beagle DICOM Filter Plugin enables the Beagle desktop search to access ACR-NEMA and DICOM content.
Installation of the Beagle DICOM Filter Plugin is effortless and can be done from an APT repository (.deb). The APT repository is available for Debian based distributions and has been successfully tested with Ubuntu 6.10. To add this line to your system, go to /etc/apt/sources.list. You will need to bring your repository index up-to-date by running 'sudo apt-get update', followed by installing the packages you are looking for with 'sudo apt-get install opendicom-navigator opendicom-utils'.
Alternatively, you can install the Beagle DICOM Filter Plugin from source packages (.tar.gz and .zip). Extract the opendicom-* packages to a temporary directory and use the provided Makefiles for compilation and installation. Please bear in mind dependencies that come with different package releases, as openDICOM.NET Utils (opendicom-utils), openDICOM.NET Navigator (opendicom-navigator), and openDICOM.NET Beagle (opendicom-beagle) require the opendicom-sharp.dll from openDICOM# package (opendicom-sharp) to function correctly. For more detailed information on installation, consult the INSTALL file.
Overall, the Beagle DICOM Filter Plugin is an efficient software tool that enhances the Beagle desktop search experience by providing easy access to ACR-NEMA and DICOM content, making it an excellent addition to any medical professional's toolkit.
