[Feature Request] - Spine Labeling

[rghgit1]

What feature or change would you like to see made?

Spine Labeling - provides important positioning information for cross referencing in other views

Why should we prioritize this feature?

Spine label added to the sagittal view also appears on the axial and coronal views. This feature will help in providing important positional information in all the views which help greatly help the diagnosis.

Found a reference to similar tool in earlier version of viewer. https://github.com/OHIF/Viewers/issues/365 . However did not find any reference in v3 nor in the roadmap.

Believe this feature will benefit in a lot of diagnosis.

This is a useful tool, we will add it in the next version

@rghgit1 have you come across something similar that can be readily integrated into OHIF in the interim?

[sedghi]

@igoroctaviano Do you happen to know if we have such adapter in SR (assuming we create the tool)

I'm not aware if we have an adapter for it. We might need to add one to dcmjs as this gets implemented. FYI, the textMarker tool was used in the past to add the labels (not the fancier bidirectional + curved annotation shown in the ticket / I think that's from Osirix BTW).

@Frankkwizera Nothing yet which is readily available for integration with OHIF

@igoroctaviano Yes, I was looking for that textMaker, thanks And do you know which reference we should follow to add the SR adapter?

TBH I haven't seen any reference besides SNOMED codes e.g. https://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/chtml/part16/sect_CID_7603.html and https://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/chtml/part16/sect_CID_1003.html.

I'm not aware of a viewer with this capability. The ones I know are just storing tool state in memory / no SR. I think we create an issue in dcmjs and discuss how to properly encode vertebrae/spine labeling data. There we might get Clunie's attention. @wayfarer3130 might help us too.

[sedghi]

@igoroctaviano Just to be clear, I'm not talking about any spine-related annotation. Just a textbox

Will revisit after next release

@sedghi HI may I know the prgress of this feature , If completed can u pls guild me to integrate this tool into my ohif viewer.

[sedghi]

it is not a priority for us, if you provide a video of the actual tool in other viewers i might be able to guide you

[sreeragdas]

@sedghi can you please go through the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEgJNX5PrUI

[sedghi]

Hmm, it seems this is a probe tool that projects through acquisition planes and enumerates the labels?

[sreeragdas]

@sedghi yes

[sedghi]

This should be very simple to implement, do you want to take over it? I can guide you

[sreeragdas]

yes , can u pls guide me on this @sedghi

[sedghi]

Having a simple tool to add labels from a table is straightforward, but the challenge lies in making it work across different viewports. In the YouTube video you shared, are all the series synchronized, or are they not displaying the same cross-section?

[sreeragdas]

no , its not displaying the same cross-section @sedghi
