Hi Shaman,

        I think you would have to convert your Dicom images to something
useable in svg such as jpg or png in order to use medical imagery inside
svg. I experimented with this awhile back converting DICOM to jpg film
strips which could then be moved through a masked view to simulate DICOM
animation. If you need to extend a viewer for medical imagery you should
probably consider Batik rather than ASV. 
        Medical people don't like lossy jpg very much so svg frameworks for
medical applications would probably require using png. Unfortunately the png
rendering is somewhat slower than jpg and can slow down client side
interactions that depend on javascript events in ASV. I don't know if the
same is true of Batik.

Is it possible to extend Adobe SVG Viewer to embed medical images to
the SVG environment?

Thanks.
