Orthanc API
Orthanc is a free and open-source, vendor-neutral DICOM server and medical-imaging ecosystem. UCLouvain describes itself as "the innovation engine behind Orthanc": the project is led by its author Sebastien Jodogne inside the Health Informatics Lab at ICTEAM, and the INGI department hosts and maintains the server infrastructure at orthanc.uclouvain.be. The REST API contract is generated from the Orthanc source and covers 239 paths / 299 operations across patients, studies, series, instances, modalities, peers, jobs, plugins and storage. This is the one surface in this repository that is UCLouvain's own engineering rather than a purchased platform's, and the public demo server answers unauthenticated GET /system live.
Orthanc API is one of 9 APIs that UCLouvain publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.
Tagged areas include Medical Imaging, DICOM, Open-Source, Research Software, and Health Informatics. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, an API reference, and API documentation.
This API exposes 299 operations across 239 paths, organized into 10 resource areas. It is described by OpenAPI 3.0.0, at version 1.13.0.
Requests are made against a single base URL, https://orthanc.uclouvain.be/demo/.

This is an independent, third-party profile of Orthanc API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.
The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.
Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
