This option not included in the mobile version of site!
** Attention Please! These applications are not designed to work with touchscreen displays over the mobile OS (Android etc.) ( Not to be confused with the touchpads on laptops using the mouse driver! It is works correctly!)
At this site you can measure diagnostic medical images and frames of video*.
* Note that you should have Adobe flash player plugin (ver. 8 or higher) in your web-browser to use that feature at this site** and due to the ongoing struggle of Google with flash, all these components are available only after log in the site! Also currently, due to the policies of Adobe, Google and Microsoft, using the Adobe flash plugin is becoming more difficult, but hypothetically, it is still possible to find old versions of browsers and download older versions of the Flash plugin for them.
