Installing DICOM-RST

There are multiple ways to get DICOM-RST up and running in your environment.

  1. Navigate to the repository page and click on the dicom-rst package under Packages in the sidebar.

  3. Pull the image as shown above:

  4. Start the container:

    docker run -p 8080:8080 -p 7001:7001 ghcr.io/umessen/dicom-rst:latest

    Make sure to expose the HTTP server (port 8080 by default) and the DIMSE server (port 7001 by default).
