[Midas] MIDAS DICOM and Desktop questions

[Patrick Reynolds]

Chad,

Midas does not contain an in-browser DICOM viewer. For that we
recommend Slicer, Osirix, etc after downloading. We have used the
DICOM plugin in the past to achieve receive functionality when pushing
from Osirix and DCMTK. The documentation for setting up the plugin is
located at the below link. Let us know if you have any issues.
