DICOMweb Client

JavaScript client implementation of DICOMweb.

For further details please refer to PS3.18 of the DICOM standard.

Goal

This is work-in-progress and should not be used in clinical practice.

The main motivation for this project is:
* Support for storing, quering, retrieving DICOM objects over the web using RESTful services STOW-RS, QIDO-RS and WADO-RS, respectively
* Building a lightweight library to facilitate integration into web applications
