I picked up some data from the nearest hospital to take to the specialist at the next one, with whom I had an appt.; it came on a CD, which is marked "DICOM Volume with GE Centricity Viewer." When I put the CD into a drive, Fedora 11 auto-mounts it, and fails to find the autorun.exe, which is right there in plain sight. (F11 knows it exists, and asks whether to run it, and then fails. This is currently normal for most M$-intended media.) So I open the file, find autorun.exe myself, and right-click on it. The first option I get is to open it with Wine, as expected. When I accept that, I get a huge popup, which I can't seem to copy, saying only that it needs "scripting support" and urging me, obscenely enough, to get M$'s so-called browser 5.0 or higher. (I take all mention of that abominable browser as an obscenity.) I thought that browser, or a cleaner clone of it, of level at least 7, was an integral part of Wine. Worst of all, I could swear I've brought home similar media before, and viewed them, or the parts I wanted, with earlier releases of wine under earlier releases of Fedora ... -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is.
The Scripting Support is a IE warning telling you enable Active Contents on IE but wine doesn't come with IE you need to install it yourself (or so I believe I never have IE). You can install it by using winetricks I don't know what version can be downloaded, I know IE6 can cause I installed it an hour ago but yeah you need to do it yourself.

I suggest you reread the instructions for downloading and using winetricks and follow them exactly. http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks

I got a license to agree to, and a warning about using the software for primary diagnosis, and suchlike good stuff. It ended up with a very small error popup, saying "idsErrorDicomdirNotSupported." After I tell that OK, it does show me something called Centricity DICOM Viewer, which I'll certainly experiment with. Is this "idsError" a Wine question?? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is. -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is.

If you're not willing to do that, there's nothing more anyone here can do to help you. We're not psychic.

I believe GIMP loads DICOM one file at a time and CT viewing typically you have 200 to 500 axial slices that make up a 3D volume. In my work (Lung CT sometimes breast CT) we generally do not look at the 3D however we often want to see the images reformatted so that we can look at the 2D slices in the Sagittal or Coronal planes. If I have time at home this evening I will try some viewers I know under wine. ImageJ is also a program that will view the DICOM one slice at a time in the Axial plane. John
