DCMTK is a collection of libraries and applications implementing large parts the DICOM standard for medical image communication. It includes software for examining, constructing and converting DICOM image files, handling offline media, sending and receiving images over a network connection, as well as demonstration image storage and worklist servers. The dcmtk package is now included in the "stable" branch of the Fink package manager. This makes installation of dcmtk on Mac OS X as easy as saying "fink install dcmtk"
