[Feature Request] Add support for converting DICOM/DCM image files to JPEG/PNG

Open armond-avanes opened this issue 9 months ago • 4 comments

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to convert DICOM/DCM image files to JPEG or PNG so that they can be easily viewable on my electronic devices.

Additional context DICOM/DCM files are used in medical imaging (CT, MRI, etc). There are many online tools to do the conversion but I don't want to upload medical images to some random websites for privacy reasons.

Do you know of any cli converter that supports the format?

ImageMagick should have the option to convert to PNG/jpeg and also DCMTK is a dedicated tool for dicom images

@armond-avanes what problems are you experiencing with the current ImageMagick solution?

@C4illin I can't find DCM file type in ImageMagick. What I can see is DCX. Is it the one you're referring to?
