[COAS-List] Re: Fw: XML and New England Neurosurgery Network



Dean,

OK, I see what is going on now.

The problem is that you cannot say:

   <IMG SRC="xray-image.dicom" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0">

since the http tools do not speak dicom. (The server can
potentially handle this, the client will not process it
accurately).

The solution I see is to persuade one of the DICOM vendors
to implement a DLL for server / client use as a plug-in.

This is the traditional approach.

Trying to make XML itself embed dicom binaries hidden within
the body of the text is not where sane men want to go!

Thanks, DW.
