Hi Hanumanth,
Here is Wayne's answer from a while back regarding adding custom
plugins to an applet:

Regarding Bio-Formats specifically, you may run into trouble trying to
read lossless JPEG compressed DICOM in an applet, because Bio-Formats
relies on the JAI Image I/O Tools native library being installed, and
AFAIK there is no easy way to bundle it in an applet (and it is
platform dependent anyway). You would need each user to install the
library manually, and even then I am uncertain whether it would be
accessible from within an applet. But other forms of compressed DICOM
should work OK.
