Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Introduction

VolView is an open source radiological viewer developed for clinical professionals. With VolView, you can have a deeper visual understanding of your data through interactive, cinematic volume rendering and easily visualize your DICOM data in 3D. Since VolView runs in your browser, you don’t need to install software and your data stays securely on your machine.

Major features of VolView include:

  1. Drag-and-drop DICOM: Drag DICOM images onto VolView, and they will be quickly parsed and presented as thumbnails. Click on a thumbnail, and the data is quickly loaded and presented as 2D slices and a 3D cinematic volume rendering.

  2. Cinematic Volume Rendering: Create beautiful renderings and gain new insights into your data with only a few clicks. VolView provides three cinematic volume rendering modes and intuitive controls for each. We've also provides simple ways to control lighting and multiple presets to get you started.

  3. Annotations and measures: We have provided a small set of tools for painting, measuring, and cropping, and that toolset will be rapidly expanding. If you have suggestions for new tools or for improving VolView in general, please leave feedback at our Issue Tracker.

  4. Simple, Scalable, and Secure: Simply visit a website to install VolView. Once it is running, all data handling, processing, and visualization occurs on your machine. Data you load into VolView never leaves your machine. And VolView is designed to run on any web browser: from the one on your phone to the one running on your most powerful workstations. It will take advantage of local GPU resources to accelerate its rendering processes, but if none is available, it will still generate the same high quality renderings, albeit a bit slower.

  5. A foundation for the future: VolView is meant to serve as a foundation for your future projects and products. It is open-source and free for commercial and academic use. You may modify it yourself, or Kitware can help you customize it to support client-server workflows, provide streamlined interfaces and tools, and carry your brand.
