README
dicom-mri — Claude Code Skill
A Claude Code skill that analyzes medical DICOM imaging studies (MRI, CT, X-ray) end-to-end — from raw files on a disc or drive, to rendered images, to written reports in clinical or plain language.
What it does
- Discovers DICOM data from a mounted CD/DVD, USB drive, or local directory
- Extracts patient and study metadata across all series
- Renders every series as PNG slice-grid images so Claude can visually inspect them
- Analyzes the imaging systematically — rotator cuff, labrum, bone marrow, tendons, cartilage, etc.
- Generates structured reports in two formats:
- Clinical report — for the patient's doctor, uses medical terminology
- Plain-language report — for the patient and family, no jargon
- Optionally generates treatment recommendations with phased recovery timelines

Usage
Once installed, just tell Claude about your scan:
*"I have an MRI CD in my disc reader, can you analyze it?"* *"My doctor gave me a CD after my knee MRI. Can you tell me what's on it in plain language?"* *"Analyze the DICOM files at /path/to/scan and generate a report"*
Claude will handle the rest.
