<font size=2 face="sans-serif">Dear list,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">My team is wrapping up support for Leica's
SCN format in OpenSlide, so I'm looking for our next hurdle to tackle.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> As CAP is embracing Dicom-145,
it seems that this would be a good candidate for the next format to be
added to OpenSlide. More info about this can be found e.g. at </font><a href="http://blog.aperio.com/2010/08/dicom-supplement-145-approved-whole-slide-microscopic-images.html"><font size=2 face="sans-serif">http://blog.aperio.com/2010/08/dicom-supplement-145-approved-whole-slide-microscopic-images.html</font></a><font size=2 face="sans-serif">.
Actual specs can be found at </font><a href=ftp://medical.nema.org/MEDICAL/Dicom/Final/sup145_ft.pdf><font size=2 face="sans-serif">ftp://medical.nema.org/MEDICAL/Dicom/Final/sup145_ft.pdf</font></a><font size=2 face="sans-serif">
. I'm not finding recent updates on this though. Has Workgroup 26 met already
this year? Not according to </font><a href="http://medical.nema.org/DICOM/minutes/WG-26/"><font size=2 face="sans-serif">http://medical.nema.org/DICOM/minutes/WG-26/</font></a><font size=2 face="sans-serif">.
Then again, DPA-2012 is on their calendar and I definitely plan on attending
their meetings (which are public).</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I'm looking for sample Dicom-145 images,
which are elusive to me so far. Plenty of CT, ultrasound et al. data available
on various sites, but a WG26-folder e.g. on </font><a href=ftp://medical.nema.org/medical/dicom/DataSets/><font size=2 face="sans-serif">ftp://medical.nema.org/medical/dicom/DataSets/</font></a><font size=2 face="sans-serif">
doesn't even exist! </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Does anybody know of sample datasets
or has any that they'd be willing to share with me for study?</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks in advance,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Yves</font>
