Package Exports

cornerstone-web-image-loader

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (cornerstone-web-image-loader) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Usage

Simply include the cornerstoneWebImageLoader.js in your HTML file after you load cornerstone.js and it will automatically register itself with cornerstone to load imageId's that have the http or https url schemes.

Key Features

Why is this a separate library from cornerstone?

Cornerstone was designed to support loading of any kind of image regardless of its container, compression algorithm, encoding or transport. This is one of many possible image loaders that can provide the image pixel data to cornerstone to display
