3. Restart Slicer

4. Open a URL like slicer://viewer/?download=$seriesinstanceuid for example

   slicer://viewer/?download=1.2.840.113654.2.55.154809705591242159075253605419469935510

   Prerequisties for Ubuntu users:

   This method requires registering slicer:// as custom web protocol. On windows, slicer installation automatically registers custom web protocol for slicer. However, on Ubuntu, edit the register_slicer_protocol.sh.edit script to provide the location of the Slicer binary.

   nano register_slicer_protocol.sh.edit

   save it as register_slicer_protocol.sh

   Make this file an executable

   chmod +x register_slicer_protocol.sh

   Run the script

   ./register_slicer_protocol.sh
