Who Uses PostDICOM
PostDICOM serves any team that collects, shares, or reviews DICOM imaging in a research context — from a single-site investigator-initiated study to a large multi-national CRO programme managing imaging across dozens of sites.
Yes — collect DICOM studies from investigator sites worldwide into a single cloud repository and share them with a central read team via password-protected links, with no additional DICOM software required at any site.
PostDICOM lets academic PIs build a central imaging archive for single or multi-centre studies without an institutional PACS contract — studies from all sites are accessible to the PI and co-investigators from any browser.
CROs managing imaging for multiple sponsors centralise all studies in one PostDICOM account — with separate study folders, role-based access per sponsor, and time-limited reader links per protocol.
Independent radiologists access studies via a time-limited share link — without joining your institutional network or installing any additional software. Access logs capture every read event for the trial master file.
PostDICOM lets research networks spanning multiple hospitals and universities share imaging data across institutions without cross-institutional PACS connectivity — each site uploads to its own folder and the coordinating centre has full access.
PostDICOM provides a persistent cloud archive suited to PMCF studies — supporting ongoing collection of imaging data after device approval, with structured folder organisation per patient and per visit.
End-to-End Workflow
PostDICOM connects every step of your imaging trial workflow — from site acquisition to central read — without PACS-to-PACS integration or cross-institutional IT agreements.
Each participating site uploads DICOM studies via the browser or automatically through the Medical Device Communicator — studies arrive in the central PostDICOM repository within minutes of acquisition, with no CD, courier, or PACS integration required.
All studies land in a single PostDICOM account, organised into folders by site, patient, visit, or modality — however your protocol requires. The coordinating centre and study sponsor have access from any browser at any time.
Generate a password-protected share link and send it to your central reader — set the expiry date to match the read lock window in your protocol. The reader clicks the link and opens the study in their browser with no additional DICOM software needed.
Every link access is automatically logged with a timestamp and access count — providing an auditable record for the trial master file. The central reader reviews the study with the full PostDICOM viewer and delivers their assessment independently.
Platform Capabilities
PostDICOM provides multi-site image collection, central read access, optional anonymisation, audit logs, document co-storage, and API integration — built to work together from day one with no separate tools required.
Sites upload DICOM studies directly via the browser or automatically through the Medical Device Communicator, all arriving in one cloud repository — no PACS-to-PACS integration and no site-level IT configuration required.
Share studies with central read radiologists via a password-protected, time-limited link — they open the full PostDICOM viewer in their browser with no additional DICOM software, no PostDICOM account, and no site access required.
Yes — PostDICOM includes a built-in anonymisation tool. You can easily remove identifying DICOM fields and strip out proprietary private tags before sharing studies with sponsors, CROs, or blinded readers.
Every share link access is automatically logged with a timestamp and access count — visible in the PostDICOM interface, supporting the trial master file and regulatory submission package.
Yes — store protocol documents, imaging checklists, CRF excerpts, MRI reports, and annotated screenshots alongside DICOM studies in the same folder, so central readers and sponsors receive a complete imaging package in one link.
PostDICOM offers JavaScript, FHIR, and DICOMweb integration options usable from the browser or server side — connect your EDC, CTMS, or randomisation system to automate study routing, folder creation per patient visit, share link generation, and access log retrieval without manual steps.
Central Read
Central readers should focus on reading — not on IT tickets, VPN connections, or PACS credentials at every trial site. PostDICOM delivers each study to the reader securely in their modern web browser, with the full viewer available the moment they open the link.

FAQ
Sites can upload DICOM studies directly from a browser — no additional software or IT configuration required. For sites with imaging devices already in use, the Medical Device Communicator can route studies automatically to PostDICOM after acquisition. Both methods work from any internet-connected location.
Yes. You generate a password-protected share link for each study assigned to a blinded reader. The reader receives the link, enters the password, and opens the full PostDICOM viewer in their browser — with no additional DICOM software or PostDICOM account required. Expiry dates on links enforce the read lock window defined in your protocol.
Yes. PostDICOM includes a built-in DICOM anonymization function that allows you to strip or replace patient-identifying tags, including private tags. Anonymisation is a user-initiated action applied per study.
Yes. Every share link generates an access log recording the number of accesses and the timestamps for each access event. This information is visible in the PostDICOM interface and supports the imaging section of your trial master file.
No. Central readers open studies in a standard browser — Chrome, Firefox, or Safari — on compatible PCs and Macs. There is nothing to install, no account to create, and no additional DICOM software required. The full PostDICOM viewer with zoom, window and level, measurements, MPR, MIP, and 3D rendering loads when they open the link.
Yes. PostDICOM stores PDF documents, JPEG images, and MP4 video files alongside DICOM studies in the same folder. Attach the imaging charter, protocol-defined measurement instructions, site certification records, or MRI reports so the central reader or sponsor has the complete study package in one link.
Yes. When you create your PostDICOM account, you select your primary storage location from 12 independent Microsoft Azure regions: EU (Germany (Frankfurt), France (Paris)), USA (East, West, South Central), UK (London), Switzerland (Zurich), Canada (Montreal), Asia-Pacific (Singapore, Australia (Sydney), India (Pune)), and South America (Brazil(São Paulo)). Your data is hosted within your selected jurisdiction to help you meet local data residency requirements and comply with regional healthcare privacy laws (such as GDPR or HIPAA).
Yes. PostDICOM offers JavaScript, FHIR, and DICOMweb integration options, usable from the browser or server side. This enables automated study routing, folder creation per patient and per visit, share link generation, and access log retrieval — connecting directly to your electronic data capture or clinical trial management system. API access is included in the Enterprise plan.
PostDICOM is a CE Mark Class IIb certified medical device and holds ISO 13485 medical device quality management certification. It can serve as a compliant imaging archive for clinical trials.
