User clients for working with medical images in Ukrainian Grid infrastructure

Design and application of web service and desktop user client for working with medical DICOM-images in Ukrainian Grid infrastructure are described. Web-service provides transparent replication of data in grid storage elements. Client consists of graphical front-end, network back-end and provides functions of image anonymization-deanonymization, searching, visualizing, archiving etc. Clients are easily extensible so new data transfer protocols, image procession functions, grid job submission and results retrieving may be easily integrated. Proposed clients are developed, tested and deployed in several Ukrainian institutions for testing and pre-production operation.
