# Installation

`dcmqi` is a collection of libraries and command line tools. It is currently possible to install `dcmqi` using one of the following approaches:

1. Using binaries for your platform from either the ["latest" or named release](https://github.com/QIICR/dcmqi/releases)
2. Using [docker](/dcmqi-guide/opening/installation/docker.md)
3. [Build from source](/dcmqi-guide/opening/installation/build_dcmqi.md)
4. [From 3D Slicer extension](/dcmqi-guide/opening/installation/slicer_extension.md)

We are also working on providing a downloadable binaries of `dcmqi` independent of the 3D Slicer application. This option will be supported in the future.
