An app that can read CT Scan(s) data

Hi -
I had some CT scans done and when I asked if I could see the images, they simply gave me 3 disks. When I asked what type of file they were (i.e., JPEG images, PDFs, etc.) and if I needed a 3rd party app to view them -- AND if so, if they were exclusively for the Windows platform — the technician sounded clueless. He just said, "you just pop the disk into your computer and it should read them."
I told him about the platform differential ("I use a Mac") and he sort of mumbled something which told me he didn't know.
As I feared, as soon as I got home and popped in the disk on my iMac, I saw all these "autorun.bat" and ".exe" file extensions. So when I opened the Readme files, sure enough...WindowsLand.
I Googled "+how to view CT scan data images on a Macintosh+" and found a couple of apps, but none of them worked.
Does anyone know of a plug-in or an application that can read these files? There are so many (under numerous subfolders), that I don't even know which one to open.
Thanks.

HI,
You need a medical specific software to read those files with. I discovered this myself. My partner needed c-scans which he did but everytime we went to see another specialist, we had to wait for the original scans to be sent to the new doctor. Instead, they burned those files to a CD and even though I could not read them on my Mac, I was able to upload them to my iPod. That way anytime we visited another doctor, all they had to do was download the scans to their computer from my iPod (firewire). Doesn't matter if they are .exe or not, you can still use an iPod or possibly a flash drive for convenient storage. It saved time and money.
Since you have the files, at least you have them for future use.
Even if you could find that software, it would be really expensive.

    You don't need an app for that text to speech is biult into OS X.

    Is there an app that can read the adresse in calender and use it in a gps app so you dont have to right it 2 times.

    If it is a complete address, and is formated properly, it should appear as a link. Tap on it and it will open the Maps App.

  • Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.

    Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.
    All of the apps I have found on the App store either do not have the text to speech capability or if they have it they will only read a page at a time or simply read the text you paste into their window. I really do not understand what is so difficult about having this feature as Kindle provides it--though Amazon does not make the feature available on its iPhone 4 app.
    Please help.

    thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
    I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
    thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue.

    iPad (iOS 7.1.2) - Kindle.
    I am looking for a good app that can help a college student with reading books that cannot be found on audio book.  I have tried voice over and it works but it's very monotone and it really strings things together. 
    - I'm willing to pay for a good app but I can't seem to sort though the many that are out there. Any suggestions.

    Ah. I'm surprised, but there we go.

    Didn't have time to do more than skim, but 'Ardour' looked promising. Protools is the only one I've used, the full product is one of the industry standards, but the free 'lite' version listed here seems to be limited to 2 in/out as well.
    Referring to your original post, I'd think trying to write or 'script' something would be a nightmare ... synchronisation of streams within something like Applescript would be a major issue, quite apart from anything else.

  • Looking for a simple app that can output 8 channels simultaneously.

    Hello esteemed audio community.
    I have to create a little effect for an upcoming party. For this I have created the following audio tracks in Garage Band:
    - 4 separate audio channels (stereo front and stereo rear)
    - one mono combination of these four tracks (to drive a Light organ gizmo - makes the light flicker with the audio)
    - and finally two separate tracks with simple 1Khz pulses to trigger relays for a fog machine.
    I now need to be able to play these 7 tracks simultaneously and send them to different amplifiers and relays. So I need two things: 1) a software that can play them and 2) a hardware interface that can take these 7 channels out of the computer and convert them to line levels analog signals.
    I thought this would be pretty straight forward but it turns out that it is not, unless you want to throw $$$ at it which I really can't afford.
    Software wise, unfortunately, GB can only output 2 audio channel at one time. So I need to find a little app that can offers multitrack output. Ideally it would some shareware thing that would allow me to load in up to 8 tracks saved from GB, adjust their individual levels and then output them.
    Second issue is hardware. Here I have found the M-Audio 410 firewire. This box will take up to 10 audio "returns" and output them to analog. They can be found used for about $150. So I think this might work.
    Budget for this setup is very limited, hopefully no more than $150. Quality does not have to be very high although a good bass response will be important for the effect. I don't need any recording. Only playback.
    Would any one have any suggestion on how to best accomplish this? If this software does not exist, how complicated would it be to write it? Would Applescript be useful for this? All it needs to do is read 8 audio files (2 minutes max), allow me to adjust their level and output all 8 at the same time.
    Thank you very much for any help.

    I Have multiple colour categories in my calendar  but need a calendar app that can sync with outlook. Do NOT want to sync with google calendar. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Hi ron1098,
    Try my application Dates to iCal. it runs on the Mac, but you can sync the calendar to your iOS device.
    See more about Dates to iCal here. It is £4 shareware with a 2 week demo.

    Looking for a free iOS 4 app that can search through .pdf files or spreadsheet    
    Thanks

    Hey there
    "pdf creator" for iPad works flawlessly for me working with pdf files
    It takes care of all my needs
    I'm not sure about sending via Wifi or Bluetooth but I send them via e- mail all the time
    Possibly it could handle your needs as well
    Just type it into the App Store search field and the first one that comes up is the one I use
    Jump on over there and read up on it before buying and see if it will help you 
    Hope this helps
    Regards

  • Looking for form filling app that can do this

    I am looking for an iPad app that can do this. I know it would need some type of cloud/web based backend to setup and manage but I'm looking for the following:
    We are a fire and security company. Many jobs require multiple documents to be created such as a service ticket, alarm activity log and maybe another form. The problem is if the tech needs to fill out the service ticket and activity log, those forms require in many ways the same information such as description of problem and end results and then each form has it's own separate info required. Right now the tech either has to retype all the similar data or try to copy and paste between the different fillable PDF files.
    I'm looking for a solution that will allow me to select which forms are needed and then it will populate the required fields to fill in and when complete it will export it to PDF on the appropriate company document templates and allow signatures to be placed before printing via AirPrint and emailing it to customer and our office.
    Does anyone know of a solution like this? It is not an easy thing to look for on Google.

    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

    Is there any app that can display two calendars (data sync with iCloud Calendars) side by side?  e.g. one calendar for planning and the other for actual / diary.

    Calendar can have two or more calendars calendars listed at the same time.
    Each can be a different color for identifidation.
