React Slicer Toolkit (RST) is a framework to render medical images in the browser. RST can render sets of 2D and 3D image data from a variety of file formats, including DICOM. The framework has helped our developers expediently build custom medical image viewers for many different applications.

One publicly available application built with RST is [ViewMyScans](https://viewmyscans.com/) (Figures 1 & 2). This website displays 3D medical images entirely in the browser. The React Slicer Toolkit laid much of the groundwork for this application, which made [ViewMyScans](https://viewmyscans.com/) a straightforward application to build.

React Slicer Toolkit is an evolving project that continues to improve. Each time our team uses the toolkit for a new project, we account for more edge cases and build on the library's extensibility. This makes it suitable for a wide range of advanced imaging web applications. React Slicer Toolkit can get you started with an advanced imaging web application quickly and gracefully.

NOTE: We now suggest using the widely-adopted OHIF library instead of react slicer toolkit.
