Abstract: An image and associated information provided in a Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) dataset can be delivered to a web browser. The DICOM dataset is separated into image data and associated data. The image data is translated into an image file and the associated data in an associated file is described using a format which is understood by the web browser. The image file and associated file are transmitted over a communications network to the web browser and the web browser is then used to display the image and associated information from the image file and associated file respectively.
