Image Duplicates Checker
Automatically detects duplicate and near-duplicate DICOM image series in large medical imaging datasets. Uses a tiered pipeline combining DICOM metadata analysis, SHA-based pixel hashing, and image similarity metrics (SSIM, cosine, MAD) to identify exact copies, re-exported series, and near-identical acquisitions. All findings are reported for human expert review — no files are modified or deleted automatically. For scenarios requiring strict, image-level deduplication based on pixel content, fully agnostic to metadata changes, consider using [https://bio.tools/image_duplicate_check_tool]

This module provides a command line tool to validate DICOM SEG files against predefined requirements specified in an Excel file. It contains components for finding relevant DICOM files, loading and parsing validation requests and applying validation rules. The main validation process checks each DICOM file for compliance with the Type 1, 1C, 2, 2C and 3 attributes specified in the requirements file. A detailed report is generated highlighting issues such as missing, invalid or conditionally required attributes, including file paths and affected DICOM tags. The tool is designed to ensure data integrity and compliance with DICOM standards.
A tool that checks the clinical metadata quality (validity, completeness), the integrity between images and clinical metadata provided as well as their accuracy, the de-identification protocol applied, and existence of annotation together with the consistency between the images and the annotation files and informs the user on corrective actions prior to data upload.
Three-dimensional protein structures play a vital role in drug design. Structure-based design necessitates an in-depth examination of the available quality data before using the structure in computational experiments and for method evaluation. StructureProfiler assists in automatically profiling sets of protein-ligand complex structures based on multiple quality indicators, ranging from model characteristics, e.g., the R factor, and active site features, e.g., bond length deviations, to ligand properties such as electron density support and the validity of torsion angles.
