Features

Everything you need to examine a study at home

The familiar toolset of a doctor's workstation — in a simple program you can install on any computer.

Opens everything

Clinic discs (DICOMDIR), folders, ZIP archives, and single files: CT, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound, mammography, PET. JPEG, JPEG 2000, JPEG-LS, and RLE compression.

Three planes — MPR

From an ordinary CT or MRI series, the program builds axial, coronal, and sagittal planes. Thick-slab MIP, average, MinIP.

Volume 3D

Spine, joints, vessels, and lungs in 3D: rotate with the mouse, change opacity, pick ready-made presets — bone, skin, vessels, muscles.

Measurements

Length, angle, Cobb angle for scoliosis, area and mean density in HU, contours, arrows, and labels. Undo — Ctrl+Z.

Windows with one key

Soft tissue, lung, bone, brain, vessels — with the digits 1–9. Invert, rotate, flip, color palettes, zoom, and magnifier.

Series comparison

Up to 9 panels on screen, synchronized scrolling, cine through slices. Handy for comparing a study "before" and "after" treatment.

Private

Images and patient data are never sent anywhere. Only anonymous numbers go to the site: the program version and the number of launches.

Screenshot with one button

The camera button or F12 — the picture goes straight to the Pictures folder and the clipboard: paste it into a messenger and send it to your doctor.

On older computers

If the graphics card is old or integrated, the program switches to software rendering by itself. There is a separate version for Windows 7 and 8.1.

How to use it

Four steps — and the images are on your screen

Download and install

Choose the version for your computer below. Installation takes about a minute.

Insert the disc or flash drive

The one you were given at the clinic after your CT or MRI. An archive sent by email will also work.

Click "Open folder"

Select the whole disc — the program will find the studies itself and list the series on the left.

View

The mouse wheel scrolls through slices, the right button changes brightness and contrast, F2 — three planes, F3 — 3D.

Installation

How to install

The program is free and is not yet signed with a paid developer certificate: because of sanctions, it is currently almost impossible for a Russian author to buy one. So on first launch Windows, macOS or your antivirus may warn about an "unknown publisher" or even block the file by mistake. This is the usual reaction to new unsigned programs — below is how to get around it.

  1. Download the installer and run it.
  2. If a blue window "Windows protected your PC" appears, click "More info", then "Run anyway".
  3. If the browser says "file is not commonly downloaded", open the downloads list, click "…" → "Keep" → "Keep anyway".
  4. After installation, the DoktorEvdokimov icon will appear on your desktop and in the Start menu.

If you do not want to install it, download the "no installation" version: it is a single file that even runs from a flash drive.

  1. Download the "Windows 7, 8, and 8.1" installer — it works for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems.
  2. Run it; if Windows asks for permission, click "Yes" or "Run".
  3. If 3D is slow on an older computer, that is normal: the program renders without the help of a graphics card.
  1. Find out your processor: Apple menu in the top-left corner → "About This Mac". "Apple M1/M2/M3/M4" — download the Apple M version, "Intel" — the Intel version.
  2. Open the downloaded ZIP — the DoktorEvdokimov app will appear. Drag it to the "Applications" folder.
  3. On first launch, right-click the icon → "Open" → "Open". On macOS 15 and later: "System Settings" → "Privacy & Security" → "Open Anyway".
  4. If macOS says the app is "damaged", open "Terminal" and run this command:
    xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/ДокторЕвдокимов.app"

Requires macOS 12 Monterey or later.

  1. Download the AppImage file.
  2. Allow it to run: file properties → "Permissions" → "Allow executing file as program", or in a terminal chmod +x DoktorEvdokimov.AppImage.
  3. Run it with a double-click. Works on Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Astra, RED OS, ALT, and other 64-bit systems.

If your antivirus complains

  1. An antivirus (Windows Defender, Kaspersky, ESET, Dr.Web, Avast and others) may take a new unsigned program for a suspicious one and delete the installer or put it in quarantine. There are no viruses in the program.
  2. Open your antivirus → "Quarantine" (in Windows Defender: "Virus & threat protection" → "Protection history"), find the DoktorEvdokimov file and click "Restore" or "Allow".
  3. Add the program's file or folder to the antivirus exclusions and run the installation again.
  4. If you want to make sure the file has not been tampered with, compare the SHA-256 checksum in the "Download" section or check the file on virustotal.com.

Sergey Aleksandrovich Evdokimov

Head of the Doctor Evdokimov Clinic in Moscow

OsteopathPhysiotherapistAcupuncturist

My name is Sergey Evdokimov, and I am a doctor. Patients keep bringing me discs with MRI and CT scans, and every time I ran into the same problem: they are not easy to open. Some programs are heavy and slow, others are paid, and others have so many extra features that you cannot figure them out without a manual.

So I decided to make a program for myself: fast, simple and with only what a doctor really needs during an appointment. When colleagues saw it at work and started asking for a download link, I decided to share it with everyone — for free.

— Sergey Evdokimov, author of the program

The program helps you view images, but it does not replace the radiologist's report or an in-person consultation.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is it really free? What is the catch?

Free and with no time limit. The program shows a small banner — for example, for the Doctor Evdokimov Clinic. You can close it with the cross until the next launch. There are no paid features.

Are my images sent anywhere?

No. Images are opened and processed only on your computer, and the program works without the internet. When the internet is available, it downloads the banner image and sends anonymous statistics: a random installation number, the program and system versions, and the number of launches, views, and clicks on the banner. Statistics can be turned off in the "About" window.

Will the disc from my clinic open?

Almost all clinics write images in the DICOM standard — the program will open them. In the program, choose "Open folder" and select the whole disc. If something does not open, write to the author using the form below — we will try to add support.

Which languages does the program support?

20 languages: Russian, English, Chinese, and the languages of the CIS countries and Europe. On Windows, the language is chosen at the start of installation; on Mac and Linux, at first launch. You can change it at any time with the globe button in the program's top bar.

Why does Windows say "Windows protected your PC"?

That is how the SmartScreen filter greets new programs that do not yet have a paid certificate and a large number of downloads. Click "More info" → "Run anyway". You can compare the files on the site with the SHA-256 checksums in the "Download" section.

My antivirus complains or deleted the installer. What should I do?

Because of sanctions, it is currently almost impossible for a Russian author to buy a code-signing certificate, and antivirus programs sometimes block new unsigned programs "just in case". Restore the file from the antivirus quarantine, add it to the exclusions and run it again. Detailed instructions are in the "Installation" section.

3D does not work or the button is inactive

Volume 3D and the three planes are built from a CT or MRI series with many thin slices. 3D cannot be built from a single X-ray image or an ultrasound. On very old computers 3D runs slower: the program renders without the help of a graphics card.

Can the program be used to make a diagnosis?

No. DoktorEvdokimov is a viewing program, not a medical device. The study report is written by a radiologist, and the treatment decision is made by the attending physician at an in-person consultation.

May I burn the program onto discs for patients or post a link on a clinic website?

Yes, the license allows it. The program may not be sold or modified. The most convenient way is to give a link to this site: the latest version is always here.

How do I uninstall the program?

Windows: "Settings" → "Apps" → DoktorEvdokimov → "Uninstall". macOS: drag the app from "Applications" to the Trash. Linux: delete the AppImage file.

Feedback

Ask the author a question

Disc will not open, found a bug, or want to suggest an improvement — write to us. Your question goes to the author personally.

For treatment questions, it is better to book an in-person consultation: a doctor does not make diagnoses or prescribe treatment by correspondence.
