Starviewer swMATH ID: 42086 Software Authors: Ruiz, M.; Julià, A.; Boada, I. Description: Starviewer and its comparison with other open-source DICOM viewers using a novel hierarchical evaluation framework. Methods: The aim of the paper is twofold. First, we present Starviewer, a DICOM viewer developed in C++ with a core component built on top of open-source libraries. The viewer supports extensions that implement functionalities and front-ends for specific use cases. Second, we propose an adaptable evaluation framework based on a set of criteria weighted according to user needs. The framework can consider different user profiles and allow criteria to be decomposed in subcriteria and grouped in more general categories making a multi-level hierarchical structure that can be analysed at different levels of detail to make scores interpretation more comprehensible.
