Any medical scan,
in your pocket.
PortaDICOM is a portable scan viewer on an SSD. It opens CT, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound and angiography on any computer — with no install and no admin rights.Open the scan, measure, hand over a report — in under a minute.
The scan that just won’t open — solved
Every PortaDICOM feature answers a moment you already know too well.
A patient brings a scan CD from another hospital — and it won’t open on the clinic computer.
Plug in the SSD, double-click — the study opens straight away.
You can’t install software on a locked-down hospital or shared PC.
Nothing to install. PortaDICOM runs from the drive on any Windows PC.
Studies are stuck on one machine — nothing travels to your other hospitals or clinics.
Carry every case on the drive — 2 TB to search, compare and teach from.
The patient asks what the scan shows — and there’s no quick way to measure or report it.
Measure on screen and print a clean PDF report in seconds.
Plug in. Double-click. Done.
No IT ticket, no setup wizard, no waiting. Three steps from drive to report.
Plug in the SSD
Insert the PortaDICOM drive into any Windows PC. No drivers, no setup wizard, no IT ticket.
Double-click to launch
The viewer opens from the drive itself — no installation and no admin rights required.
Open, measure, report
Load a study from a CD, USB or folder. Take measurements and print a clean PDF — in under a minute.
The drive is the product
PortaDICOM ships pre-loaded on a 2 TB SSD. Plug it into any Windows PC and it just runs — the viewer, your case library, everything on one drive.
- 2 TB SSD — pre-loaded and ready to plug in
- Plug & play — no install, no admin rights
- Your whole case library travels on the drive
- Licensed to the drive — it can’t be freely copied
From a disc to a report — on one drive
PortaDICOM isn’t just a viewer. It imports, organises, measures and reports, so the whole job lives in one place.
Import & organise
Pull studies in from a CD, USB or folder into a clean, deduped case library on the drive — deduped by SOP Instance UID, with your originals left untouched.
View & measure
Window/level and presets, smooth multi-frame cine, and measurements in real units — length in mm, angle, elliptical ROI, and the cardiology toolkit.
Report & share
Print a clean PDF report in seconds, and mirror your entire library to another drive with one-click incremental backup.
A full radiology viewer, built from scratch
No borrowed DICOM libraries — every layer is ours, so it stays fast, clean and license-safe.
XA · JPEG-Lossless
The PortaDICOM viewer — XA cine with on-screen measurements.
Every common modality
CT, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound and angiography — 8/16-bit, signed/unsigned, MONOCHROME and RGB.
From-scratch DICOM engine
No third-party DICOM libraries. The parser, pixel pipeline and codecs are all ours — clean and license-safe.
Smooth cine playback
Multi-frame XA loops play back with look-ahead caching. Play, pause, scrub, and set your own fps.
Real measurements
Length in mm, angles, elliptical ROI with mean/SD/min/max, and a live pixel probe in Hounsfield units.
Window / level & presets
One-drag window/level plus presets for soft tissue, lung, bone, brain and abdomen. Invert, fit, reset.
Case library on the drive
Import studies into a clean, deduped, browsable tree. One click mirrors your whole archive as a backup.

Cardiology measurements that actually get used
Shaped around real angiography studies — the numbers an interventional cardiologist reaches for, right where they need them. See the cathlab viewer details.
% diameter stenosis
Reference diameter vs minimal lumen on a calibrated frame — the number cath-labs ask for most.
TIMI frame counting
Step frame-by-frame with correct cine timing to count flow and find the end-diastolic frame.
AHA coronary segments
Map lesions to standard AHA segments for clear, shareable angiography reporting.
Pre / post-PCI compare
Put two runs side by side to show the result of the intervention at a glance.
Built for the moments you actually hit
Wherever a study needs to open on a machine you don’t control, PortaDICOM is designed to just work.
A patient brings a scan CD
Open a study from another hospital right away — even when the disc’s own viewer refuses to run.
Locked-down hospital PCs
No install and no admin rights, so it works on the shared, restricted machines you actually have.
The cath-lab
XA cine playback with % diameter stenosis, TIMI, AHA segments and pre/post-PCI comparison.
Multiple clinics or sites
Carry every case on a 2 TB drive — search, compare and review wherever the patient is.
Teaching & second opinions
Pull up any case in seconds to show a colleague, a student, or a conference room.
Air-gapped networks
Fully offline — nothing is uploaded, so disconnected and restricted environments are no problem.
Your studies stay yours
Local, offline, and locked to the drive it ships on.
Licensed to the drive
Each SSD is licensed to itself — it can’t be copied to another drive. One drive, one license.
Your data never leaves
Everything runs locally on the drive and the PC. No cloud upload, nothing to leak — ideal for air-gapped clinics.
Built for clinicians
Radiology mouse gestures, keyboard shortcuts and a patient banner that keeps you oriented, case after case.
One drive. One license. Yours to carry.

Ask for pricingGood to know
Does it really need no installation?
Correct. PortaDICOM runs directly from the SSD with no installer and no admin rights — exactly what locked-down hospital and shared PCs require. You double-click a launcher after plugging the drive in.
Is it compatible with all cathlab devices?
DICOM is vendor-neutral, so PortaDICOM reads studies from any device to the extent of its pixel encoding. For cardiac XA it covers uncompressed, RLE, JPEG Lossless and JPEG 2000 — which together account for the vast majority of real-world angiography exports. Send us one sample study per device and we confirm coverage before you buy.
Do I need an internet connection?
No. The viewer is fully offline. Your studies stay on the drive and the local machine — nothing is uploaded anywhere.
Which operating system does it run on?
Windows today, shipped pre-loaded on a 2 TB SSD. macOS and Linux builds are on the roadmap.
Can I use it for diagnosis?
No. PortaDICOM is for review and records only. On-screen measurements are operator-confirmed estimates. Primary diagnostic use requires regulatory clearance (FDA 510(k) / EU MDR), which is on our roadmap.
How is it priced?
The natural unit is one license per SSD (per device). Per-site licensing is also available. Contact us for current pricing and a free demo on your own studies.
