Our research lab, the FNNDSC, directs international collaborations on pediatric neuroimaging research. The data sharing platform for this research is ChRIS. We have implemented a solution for sharing DICOM data between "peer" instances of ChRIS using Orthanc, an open-source DICOM server. Here we describe our deployment of Orthanc on Red Hat OpenShift and other open-source contributions we would like to share with the Orthanc community.
