OsiriX is a great and bad viewer that made life easier and cheaper for lots of radiologists and doctor (although not cheap enough for some countries)
The bad part: OsiriX was LGPL for a while, but they began to mix it with closed binaries. I reported some inconsistencies on the license in their mailing list, they moderated me, and some time later stopped publishing source. That's were Horos started growing.
- fluidcruft 4y agoI have always avoided OsiriX, but at my new job it's used a lot in the image processing lab (that I help support). I want to build/provide some simple QA utilities for the people who do use OsiriX, but I'm a physicist and I can't justify buying that MD license to tinker with and that damn timeout nag bullshit is not something I will waste my time on. I can't even tell how compatible Horos is with OsiriX or if it's maintained anymore. If I knew that plugins developed for Horos would work on OsiriX I might consider that "ecosystem" but as is it's not worth the effort to me. I barely tolerate OS X.
