Convert your DCM file to PDF

Convert image files with our easy-to-use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a DCM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM)) file and, from this, create a new image saved in the PDF (Portable Document Format) format that you can then download and edit within image file editors or use for high-definition printing applications. Our conversion tool can also batch convert multiple DCM image files; up to 25 files at a time can be converted.

Along with converting DCM image files to PDF, our tool allows you to also adjust the image with some simple effects, such as applying a grayscale filter to the image. These additional options are available within the Options tab. Along with grayscale, you can also mirror or flip the image if needed. For single DCM file uploads, you will also see options to resize and rotate your image.

Description

A DCM file is an image file format developed over a long period of time for the storage of medical-related images. The format was first released in the 1980s and has been adapted and improved since to cater for ever-evolving healthcare requirements.

The format is primarily used to store medical images such as CT scans, X-rays, MRIs, and more. A single DCM file may contain many individual images along with medical-related metadata such as patient information. The individual images may be stored as raw bitmap data or compressed JPEG data.

Description

The PDF format is a widely used document format containing text, images, and other 2D content in a read-only format. The format was introduced in 1992 by Adobe as a royalty-free format and is largely based on the earlier PostScript file format, with some of its scripting features later removed.

PDF files can contain rasterized images and vector graphics, which can optionally be compressed and encrypted for successful transmission. The format has evolved over the years to include features such as layers, metadata, accessibility features, and interactive forms.
