Set up and test the OHIF Viewer (or LesionTracker) application:

  1. Install Meteor
  2. Open a new terminal tab in one of the Application directories (OHIFViewer or LesionTracker)
  3. Instruct Meteor to install all dependent NPM Packages
METEOR_PACKAGE_DIRS="../Packages" meteor npm install
  1. Run Meteor using one of the available configuration files.
METEOR_PACKAGE_DIRS="../Packages" meteor --settings ../config/orthancDICOMWeb.json

Note: On Windows, you may need to set PACKAGE_DIRS="../Packages" in your Environment Variables in your operating system settings.

  1. Launch the OHIF Viewer / Lesion Tracker Study List by visiting http://localhost:3000/ in a web browser.

If everything is working correctly, you should see the Study List from your archive when you visit the Study List.

  1. Double-click on a Study in the Study List to launch it in the Viewer

If everything is working correctly, you should see your study load into the Viewer.
