README

dicomweb-mcp-server

A [Model Context Protocol (MCP)][mcp-url] server that exposes a DICOMweb-compliant DICOM archive to AI assistants. It lets any MCP-capable client search studies, series and instances, inspect metadata, read Structured and Encapsulated PDF Reports, and render image frames — all through natural language.

Requirements

Node.js 20 or later
A running DICOMweb server supporting QIDO-RS and WADO-RS (e.g. [orthanc][orthanc-url])

The following endpoints must be supported by the DICOMweb server:

Endpoint	Service	Used by
`GET /studies`	QIDO-RS	Search studies
`GET /studies/{study}/series`	QIDO-RS	Search series
`GET /studies/{study}/series/{series}/instances`	QIDO-RS	Search instances, search structured reports, search encapsulated PDF reports
`GET /studies/{study}/series/{series}/instances/{instance}/metadata`	WADO-RS	Get instance metadata, get structured report text, get encapsulated PDF report text
`GET /studies/{study}/series/{series}/instances/{instance}/frames/{frame}/rendered`	WADO-RS	Render instance frame

Installation

Using npx (recommended — no local install needed)

npx dicomweb-mcp-server

The server reads its configuration from a .env file located in the same directory as the script (see Configuration below).

Global install

npm install -g dicomweb-mcp-server
dicomweb-mcp-server

Configuration

Create a .env file with the connection details for your DICOMweb server. Place the file next to wherever the server is executed from (or in the working directory you configure in your MCP client).

# Required
DICOMWEB_HOST=https://your-dicomweb-server/dicomweb

# Optional — authentication
DICOMWEB_AUTH=basic        # basic | bearer
DICOMWEB_USER=username     # required when DICOMWEB_AUTH=basic
DICOMWEB_PASS=password     # required when DICOMWEB_AUTH=basic
DICOMWEB_TOKEN=your-token  # required when DICOMWEB_AUTH=bearer

# Optional — request timeout (milliseconds)
DICOMWEB_TIMEOUT=30000

Variable	Required	Description
`DICOMWEB_HOST`	Yes	Base URL of the DICOMweb server (used for both QIDO-RS and WADO-RS requests)
`DICOMWEB_AUTH`	No	Authentication type: `basic` or `bearer`
`DICOMWEB_USER`	Conditional	Username — required when `DICOMWEB_AUTH=basic`
`DICOMWEB_PASS`	Conditional	Password — required when `DICOMWEB_AUTH=basic`
`DICOMWEB_TOKEN`	Conditional	Bearer token — required when `DICOMWEB_AUTH=bearer`
`DICOMWEB_TIMEOUT`	No	Fetch timeout in milliseconds. Omit to disable.

MCP Client Setup

Claude Desktop

Add the server to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dicomweb": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "dicomweb-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "DICOMWEB_HOST": "https://your-dicomweb-server/dicomweb"
      }
    }
  }
}

You can supply all environment variables directly in the env block instead of using a .env file.

VS Code (GitHub Copilot Agent Mode)

Add to your VS Code settings.json or workspace .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "dicomweb": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "dicomweb-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "DICOMWEB_HOST": "https://your-dicomweb-server/dicomweb"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project root, or to the global ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dicomweb": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "dicomweb-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "DICOMWEB_HOST": "https://your-dicomweb-server/dicomweb"
      }
    }
  }
}
