The concept of 3-D AR modeling of medical imaging is great. The realty (augmented) of 3-D AR modeling presented by this app is not.
The imagery from DICOM presents a challenge in that it is a relatively obscure monolithic format which tried to boil the medical industry ocean for all uses of imagery, video, annotation and even network transfer. This app does a decent job of bringing DICOM into a format that can be displayed on a mobile device (standard video card), but that’s where it stops.
The controls and features are granular and provide nearly zero automated assistance in adjusting image filtering. Contrast to the iOS camera app’s implementation of filtering and this app reminds you of the 1980 early edition of photoshop.
The interface controls and conventions look more like a radiology workstation than an iOS mobile app. This app breaks with the scientifically developed basic Human Interface constructs developed by Apple (pioneered) and instead does just about everything “different” with a “Doctor Interface” design instead.
With an overhaul of the interface and the the operational functionality, this app could be decent. As it is, it is cumbersome, unintuitive, and unappealing.
One star because it didn’t crash, one star because it rendered the relatively obscure and poorly designed DICOM file format to the screen, and one star for concept.
