Hello I would like to ask you for a library to help displaying 2D images.

I would like some links to more information about this topic. I need to create a destkop application to show 2D medical images.

The purpose is to create a simple way to show images where you can click on segmented parts and then the part’s name displays and it also colours the region.

The aim is to help students to learn anatomy.

I would like to find a library to simplify the process to handle images. I have read about VTK, but I would like more suggestions. Also I am focusing on Java because is the language which I know the most so it would be convenient to write with it.

In addition the aplication is a viewer like ITKSnap’s display interface, but only with 2D images.

Could you help me please?
