Workstation-grade reading, in Chrome or Edge.
Veterinary DICOM Viewer
Studies that take minutes to load on a desktop PACS open in seconds. MPR, 3D, multi-monitor, and species protocols. No plugin, no install.
Built for veterinary medicine from day one.
NewLumen was built for veterinary medicine from the start, with species-tagged hanging protocols and vet-native macros built in from day one.
Species-aware from study open
Hanging protocols are built for veterinary anatomy and apply automatically when a study opens. No per-study setup. Canine and feline protocols ship out of the box, matched to the study's species and modality. Reporting macros follow the same pattern.
Prior comparison
Surfaces prior studies for the same patient automatically when you open a case. No manual search required.
Advanced imaging, entirely in the browser
NewLumen runs in Chrome or Edge with no desktop software or plugins required. Read studies with fast, intuitive controls for scrolling, zooming, panning, window/level, and customizable presets, alongside MPR, 3D volume rendering, multi-monitor support, cine playback, and advanced ultrasound measurements. Share studies by link, email, or DICOM directly from the platform.
Imaging that keeps up with your workflow
1,385-image canine CT thorax, hanging protocol applied. Multi-series CT studies, streamed from the cloud on demand. Switch a standard viewport to MPR.
Advanced viewer features, without a desktop workstation.
First-class MPR and 3D layout modes, multi-monitor via the Window Management API, echo cineloop, and species-specific hanging protocols, all running without desktop software.
Species-specific hanging protocols
Hanging protocols are species-tagged and apply automatically when a study opens, matched to the study's species and modality, even when vendor equipment populates DICOM tags inconsistently.
Multi-monitor support
Multi-monitor mode runs via the Window Management API in Chrome and Edge. Extend the viewer across two monitors with independent viewports on each display, no workstation software or special hardware configuration required.

Bring your hardest CT. We open it in the live platform and you read it the way you would on Monday morning. No slides.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a veterinary DICOM viewer?
Software that opens and displays medical imaging files in DICOM format, designed for veterinary species with species-specific hanging protocols, macros, and reference tools. NewLumen's viewer runs in the browser with no installation required.
Does the viewer require software installation?
No. The viewer runs in Chrome or Edge, with no desktop application, no plugin, and no VPN required.
How is NewLumen different from a desktop viewer like Horos?
Horos is a free, open-source desktop viewer for macOS, useful for basic viewing but not browser-native and not built for veterinary-specific workflows. NewLumen is browser-native, with species protocols and teleradiology features built in.
Does NewLumen support MPR and 3D?
Yes. Both are first-class layout modes accessible from the layout switcher. A 1,385-image canine CT thorax transitions to MPR in under three seconds.
Does multi-monitor work in a browser?
Yes, via the Window Management API in Chrome and Edge. You can extend the viewer across two monitors with independent viewports on each. Safari does not currently support the Window Management API.
Are species-specific hanging protocols included?
Yes. Canine and feline protocols ship out of the box and apply automatically based on species and modality. No per-study configuration required.
Can I use NewLumen with my existing modalities?
Yes. Your imaging equipment submits studies to NewLumen via standard DICOM protocols.
How fast does the viewer load studies?
Fast. Large multi-series CT studies that take several minutes to open in a traditional desktop PACS load in NewLumen in under 30 seconds, with hanging protocol already applied. There is no local caching step and nothing to pre-download, images stream from the cloud on demand.
How is image quality maintained in the browser?
NewLumen uses Cornerstone3D, the modern open-source DICOM rendering framework. Studies render at full diagnostic quality with hardware acceleration.
