## Description

DroidRender is a powerful 3D DICOM viewer designed for Android devices that supports a wide range of DICOM formats including uncompressed, compressed, and J2K compressed files. It features advanced 2D and 3D multi-plane reconstruction capabilities, allowing users to view medical images in Transverse, Sagittal, Coronal, and Oblique planes with various rendering options like grayscale, color look-up tables, maximum/minimum intensity projections, and mean value calculations.

The extension also includes a comprehensive 3D rendering engine with volume rendering, ray casting, iso surface generation, and X-Ray simulation, all supporting solid shading. Additional features like tissue segmentation, free slicing in both 2D and 3D views, and 3D printing mesh generation make DroidRender ideal for educational and illustrative purposes. It supports loading files from cloud storage via Android's storage access framework (API 19+). Note: it supports only monochrome images and is intended for educational use, not for medical diagnosis or treatment.
