Cottage Med is an Open Source Software that is ...
- Accessible & Affordable (Free, in fact)
- Easily Customizable and Expandable
- Designed by physicians for physicians
- Used by doctors in the U.S. and developing nations
- a template for FileMaker versions 5-7
Are you intimidated by computers? Is the cost of an electronic medical record ("EMR") beyond your reach? Are you a non-profit organization or a struggling doctor young or old? Our profession suffers with a blizzard of competing and conflicting EMRs. Bloated with unnecessary features, they cost a thiefs arm and a leg to boot. In Cottage Med you can quickly learn and easily reprogram our EMR just like visual Basic without programming experience.
Medicine has a big problem - no broadly accepted, affordable EMR standard exists. Cottage Med bridges your difficult present and unknown future by helping you step into a calmer, smoother, more productive now where you maintain full control over your information, full access to it, and the ability to smoothly export it to whatever future system or standards you choose. Open-Source EMRs are simply great solutions.
A flexible, ruggedly dependable and HIPAA-secure office system can be constructed with your old computer hardware for a few hundred dollars...with secure and wireless networking, PDA and multiple-office support, prescription writing and cross-platform compatibility built in. You should not believe the hype of the AAFP and hundreds of for-profit EMR software companies; our EMR solutions work right now, today, at no cost even without buying FileMaker.
Designed for PC, Apple and Linux environments, these templates run within the database program FileMaker (so its not a "pure" open-source project), but Cottage Med installs like childs play, develops quickly, and does the job to help improve healthcare. The templates designers offer free software support and system suggestions as needed.

openDICOM.NET software implements a new approach towards DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) libraries. DICOM is a worldwide standard in Medical IT and is provided by the National Electrical Manufacturers Assocation (NEMA). This standard specifies the way medical images and meta data like study or patient related data is stored and communicated over different digital medias. Thus, DICOM is a binary protocol and data format.

The openDICOM# Class Libary, main part of the openDICOM.NET project, provides an API to DICOM in C# for Mono and the .NET Framework. It is a completely new implementation of DICOM. In contrast to other similar libraries the intention of this implementation is to provide a clean classification with support of unidirectional DICOM data streaming. Another implemented goal is the support of DICOM as XML. This is not standard conform but very use- and powerful within software development, storage and manipulation. Currently, full read support of DICOM output stream and full write support to XML is supposed to be provided. The entire DICOM content can be accessed as sequence or as tree of class instances. Latter is the default representation of DICOM content by the library.

The openDICOM.NET Utils are a collection of console tools for working with the needed data dictionaries in different data formats (binary and textual), query of ACR-NEMA (prior DICOM standard) and DICOM files and transcoding them into image formats like JPEG and XML files. These utils are written in C# for Mono and the .NET Framework and are using the openDICOM# API for processing.

Last but not least, the openDICOM.NET Navigator recapitulates the openDICOM.NET Utils in form of a GTK# GUI. It provides different views with focus on DICOM data sets and visualization. Connectivity to GIMP is also given for image processing purpose as well as the possibility to run through multi-frame images like a movie.

FreeMED is a Web-based medical records (EMR) and patient management system with a printing system, patient scheduling, an HL7 interface, a billing system, XML-RPC Web services, and many other features.
FreeMED has an extensible modular architecture, allowing it to be customized based on individual practices without having to rewrite core components of the system. It is HIPAA compliant.
Enhancements:
- NPI support (used with newer version of REMITT), initial superbill support, enhanced billing logic and better billing behavior, a DHTML viewer for Djvu documents, additional community documentation from freemed.info, many bugfixes, and incremental module improvements.

Medical Imaging Interaction Toolkit (MITK) is currently under active development, and aims at supporting the development of leading-edge medical imaging software with a high degree of interaction. It combines vtk, itk and the pic-based-libraries of the Div.
Main features:
- multiple, consistent views on the same data. For example, when you have three orthogonal 2D-views and a 3D view and data consisting of a green surface, the surface will be visible and green in all views (as contour lines in 2D, as a surface in 3D), and when you move the surface, it will move in all views. When you try to realize this with basic vtk, you will need to coordinate the position/orientation/color/... of all the views somewhere in your program - exactly this can mitk do for you.
- interactions that create and/or modify data (not only actors as in basic vtk)
- complex interactions with multiple states, e.g., for interaction with active contours
- undo/redo of interactions
- organization of data objects in a tree at run-time, e.g., to represent logical dependencies (e.g., a heart cavity is a part of the heart) or to control the rendering process
- additional properties of arbitrary type can be assigned to data objects contained in the data tree
- visualization and interaction with 3D+t data (basic vtk can handle only 3D data and itk is not for visualization and interaction)
- although mitk is mainly a toolkit and not an application, it offers some support on the application-level, e.g, for structured combination of modules (so-called functionalities), e.g., for combining and switching between one functionality for segmentation and another for registration.
Enhancements:
- New functionalities: IsoSurface, ViewInitialization and Measurement.
- Support for ITK 2.4-2.8, VTK 4.4 and 5.0.
- Lots of bugfixes and improvements, e.g. interaction for rotatable slices.
