a web-based framework for resource sharing and collaborative medical image annotation
There is a lot of commercial software for working with images, from very simple editing and enhancement up to very complicated and sophisticated jobs, but we cannot find a share area that is accessible from all around the world and can respond to our needs in image processing and data visualizing. For working with the images in a distributed manner, we need a middleware which supports our system in a transparent way. For addressing this issue, we develop a framework, which uses web services for image processing and data visualization. This is the place that a general framework is being needed to respond our requirements. This paper presents different ways for developing a framework and shows that web services is one of the best solutions and gives the ability for connecting interior parts, saving and retrieving selections and annotations by using XML.
