CTK supports the common use of medical imaging software developments on different levels (not all of these levels are available yet). This ranges from loosely coupled applications (level 1: basically data exchange) to more and more tight integration (level 2: parameter exchange; level 3: exchange of events; level 4: exchange of services; level 5: complete integration).
| CTK benefit for Host | CTK benefit for App/Module | |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1: DICOM Part 19 |
|
|
| Level 2: Command line interface |
|
|
| Level 3: CTK event bus |
| |
| Level 4: CTK services |
| |
| Level 5: “Classic” C++ |
