Introduction
The goal of OnePacs Workstation for macOS is to deliver the best possible viewer for images produced by radiology equipment. Its key features are displaying, reviewing, interpreting and post-processing images. OnePacs Workstation for macOS is an image processing software primarily dedicated to DICOM images.
OnePacs Workstation for macOS is based on Horos, which is based on OsiriX. OsiriX was originally an open-source project, distributed under the LGPL license. However, the project has recently evolved into a closed-source format. This has given other communities the opportunity to inherit the original project with its original philosophy, thus creating the Horos project. OnePacs Workstation for macOS is a declination of Horos that specializes it for usage with the other OnePacs components.
OnePacs Workstation for macOS fully supports the DICOM standard for an easy integration in your workflow environment. It offers advanced post-processing techniques in 2D and 3D, and offers a complete integration with any PACS. OnePacs Workstation for macOS supports 64-bit computing and multithreading for the best performances on the most modern processors.

Indications for Use
OnePacs Workstation for macOS is a software device intended for the viewing of images acquired from CT, MR, CR, DR, US and other DICOM compliant medical imaging systems when installed on suitable commercial standard hardware. Images and data can be captured, stored, communicated, processed and displayed within the system and/or across computer networks at distributed locations. Lossy compressed Mammographic images and digitized film screen images must not be reviewed for primary diagnosis or image interpretation. Mammographic images should only be viewed with a monitor approved by FDA for viewing Mammographic images. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure monitor quality, ambient light conditions and that image compression ratios are consistent with clinical application.
Contraindications
