Hi Scott,

The files given to by your doctor will likely be an image file (s) in a special format called 'dicom' with a .dcm extension. If this is the case they will have included a small dicom image viewer program - this is likely the Satellite efilm files you are seeing. The discomfit files will often be in a separate folder called ' dicomdir '. In the top level of the Cd there is usually an autorun file that is intended to run automatically when you insert the Cd into your PC. Once the efilm program from the Cd is running it should find your image files pronto.

When medical imaging offices (MRI, CT, etc.) create CDs for patients, many use Merge’s eFilm Workstation product to create the CD with an included viewer, eFilm Lite. eFilm Lite versions prior to 3.3 (3.4 is the current version) are not compatible with 64-bit versions of Windows. So, please check if you are using 64 bit Windows or not.

For home users like in your case, working only with one or two CDs of their own images, the simplest solution may be to copy the entire CD onto the hard drive (in a folder of its own), then locate a copy of a newer (or possibly much older) version of the eFilm Lite software online and follow the instructions to replace the copy that was included with their CD.  

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Lokesh
