IDC integrates two different viewers, which will be used depending on the type of images being opened. Visualization of radiology images uses the open-source [Open Health Imaging Foundation (OHIF) Viewer](https://github.com/OHIF/Viewers). [SliM Viewer](https://github.com/MGHComputationalPathology/slim) is used for visualization of slide microscopy images. We customized both of those viewers slightly to add features specific to IDC. You can find all of those modifications in the respective forks under the IDC GitHub organization for OHIF and SliM viewers: [OHIF Viewer fork](https://github.com/ImagingDataCommons/Viewers) and [SliM Viewer fork](https://github.com/ImagingDataCommons/slim). IDC Viewer is opened every time you click the "eye" icon in the study or series table of the IDC Portal.

IDC Viewer is a "zero-footprint" client-side viewer. What this means is that before you can see the image in the viewer, it has to be downloaded to your browser from the IDC DICOM stores. IDC Viewer communicates the data it receives through a proxy via the [DICOMweb](https://www.dicomstandard.org/dicomweb) interface implemented in GCP [Cloud Healthcare API](https://cloud.google.com/healthcare/docs/concepts/dicom). The proxy is intended to throttle download of data.
