PACS guidance

Reviewing images on a Windows PC

Chelsea and Westminster Hospital PACS CDs/DVDs should automatically open when inserted into your computer’s CD/DVD drive.

If for any reason it does not, open the CD/DVD manually:

  • Double-click the ‘My Computer’ icon (usually on desktop) 
  • Double-click the CD/DVD drive icon 

For Windows 98/ME/XP/2000 double-click the Ez-DicomCDViewer icon.

For Windows Vista/7 double-click the Ez-DicomCDViewer-9x icon.

The EZ-Dicom viewer will launch and images contained on the disc can be viewed (refer to the ‘Using the EZ-Dicom Viewer’ page for further information).
