Version 1.8.1
August 2026
In review
- Minor improvements and fixes.
Version 1.8.0
August 2026
- Clinic portal links now work. If a link opens a page that wants a login or an access code, you can open it right inside the app: sign in, tap the download button, and the images arrive on their own — no saving files by hand.
- When such a page holds a direct link to the archive, the app finds it for you. If there are several, it shows them as a list — just tap the one you need.
- Clearer messages when the files you picked aren’t DICOM: the app names what they actually are — a PDF report from the doctor or ordinary images — and what to ask the clinic for.
- Fixed: the density histogram was missing from fine tune on studies with saved settings.
Version 1.7.1
July 2026
- If the folder you pick contains archives rather than images, the app now unpacks them itself instead of reporting that the files could not be opened. An archive that contains archives is handled the same way.
- A clinic disc’s Windows viewer (.exe) is first tried as a self-extracting archive, since many of them carry the study inside. If it really is just a program, the app says so and tells you what to ask the clinic for.
Version 1.7.0
July 2026
- LumaDICOM now runs on iPad — the same interface with a much larger image area, including landscape orientation.
- DICOM files without the standard file header now open — these show up in exports from older PACS systems.
Version 1.6.1
July 2026
- Downloading by link is now more resilient and noticeably faster: if the connection drops, the transfer automatically resumes where it left off instead of starting over.
- Download progress is shown more accurately.
Version 1.6.0
July 2026
- Measurement tools in 2D and MPR — ruler, angle, ellipse ROI (area, mean density and an approximate lesion volume) and a live probe that names the tissue under your finger.
- Full study details — the key DICOM metadata: patient, acquisition parameters, equipment, dose, identifiers.
- In-app feedback form — report a problem or suggest a feature right from the app.
- Fixed lighting on cut planes and erased areas in 3D — sliced faces no longer render black.
- New app icon.
Version 1.5.0
July 2026
- Overlay mode — add a second slice stack to the 3D scene and compare two models in the same space; each keeps its own tissue presets, brightness, cuts and eraser.
- Align by points — drop 3–6 paired anatomical points on both models and the app fits them together precisely, showing the deviation in millimetres.
- Saved study settings — turn it on and everything you tuned in 3D, 2D and MPR (including the overlay and eraser) is restored the next time you open the study.
- Bug fixes and stability improvements.
Version 1.4.3
June 2026
- PRO fine-tuning — a transfer-function curve editor: set tissue colour, opacity and brightness by hand, node by node.
- MIP mode in 3D — maximum-intensity projection, great for contrast-filled vessels.
- Fixed-light mode — the light source stays put while you rotate the model.
- A discreet MPR crosshair that doesn't cover the image.
- A clear message when opening scanner-viewer discs (GALILEOS, etc.).
- Fine-tuning and stability improvements.
Version 1.4.2
June 2026
- Simplified Chinese interface — the app is now available in Russian, English and Chinese.
- New 3D eraser — wipe away parts of the volume with your finger to reveal hidden structures.
- Even broader DICOM compatibility — more hospital and PACS exports open directly.
- Stability and refinements.
Version 1.4.1
June 2026
- Compressed DICOM support: JPEG 2000, JPEG Lossless, RLE and JPEG Baseline — scans from most hospitals and PACS now open directly.
- Import a single DICOM file, or pick a whole folder — a clearer Add menu.
- Open studies shared as plain HTTP links.
- Stability fixes and refinements.
Version 1.4.0
June 2026
- New MPR mode — all three planes (axial, sagittal, coronal) at once with a linked crosshair.
- Oblique reformatting, slab thickness (MIP / average) and a ruler on every plane.
- Anatomical orientation labels (R/L/A/P/H/F) and zoom sync across the planes.
- Noticeably better stability and performance during long sessions.
Version 1.3.5
June 2026
- Import password-protected ZIP archives
- Correct slice (MPR) reconstruction for studies acquired in any plane
- Haptic feedback on button taps (can be turned off in Settings)
- Smoother slice scrolling and brightness adjustment
- Fully localized interface and messages (English / Russian)
- Improved catalogue thumbnails and overall stability
Version 1.3.4
June 2026
- Export 3D models to OBJ and STL
- Study groups and sorting in the catalogue
- Localized body-region names and error messages
- Smoother 3D: render pauses at rest, front view by default
- A clear notice instead of an empty 3D when a series has too few slices
Version 1.3.3
June 2026
- Fixed importing archives with Cyrillic file names
- "Report a problem" button on import failures
- Fixed the import screen layout
Version 1.3.0
June 2026
- New X-Ray rendering mode in the 3D viewer — switch between Volume and X-Ray to see dense bones with dental work and metal hardware highlighted, in a clinical CT-projection style.
Version 1.2.1
May 2026
- RAR and 7z archive support added (in addition to ZIP), for both file import and cloud links (Google Drive, Dropbox, Yandex Disk).
- 3D clipping planes: up to three at once, new compact tabbed UI, panel no longer obscures the volume.
- 3D viewer: "1×" zoom-reset button moved to the bottom-left corner.
- 2D viewer: zoom-out down to 50%; one finger now only adjusts brightness, two fingers pan the image.
- OPTG: drag the panorama with one finger to shift the underlying arch — a corner thumbnail with the curve appears while pressed.
- Fixed a crash at maximum zoom in the OPTG arch-drawing mode.
- Various UI and stability improvements.
Version 1.2.0
May 2026
- Panoramic (OPTG) view — reconstruct a flat panoramic image of the dental arch from a CT scan, with adjustable slab thickness and a histogram window.
- Sagittal and coronal slices (MPR) — in 2D mode you can now view your scan from the side and front, not just from above.
- Density fine-tune — a histogram with two handles trims "extra tissue" out of the 3D model.
- Clipping planes — slice off part of the 3D model along X/Y/Z to look inside.
- Share an examination, or save a panorama image to Photos, via the system share sheet.
- 3D quality switch in Settings for crisper side reconstructions.
- Ruler and measurements in the side planes, with a magnifier for precise placement.
- Fixes: Yandex.Disk import links and exam renaming.
Version 1.0.1
May 2026
- First public release of LumaDICOM.
