a DICOM file to BMP / JPG and vice versaThis tool was developed for converting a DICOM image to a common graphic format and vice versa with DCMTK and CxImage. DCMConverter is a minimum runnable toy application as a starting point to show how to convert a DICOM image to common graphic formats (i.e. BMP, JPG, TIF, etc.) and vice versa.
The DICOM standard (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) is a standard created by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) to ease the distribution and exchange of medical images, such as CT scans, MRIs and ultrasound. In this article, we will focus on file format conversions.
The encoding feature provided by CxImage is used to convert a DICOM image to a JPG file (or other formats that CxImage supports). Actually, DCMTK already has a full-fledged utility called dcmj2pnm to convert a DICOM image to a BMP, PNG, TIF or JPG image. For other formats, that dcmj2pnm doesn't support, such as GIF, TGA, PCX, WBMP, etc., you may use CxImage�s encoding features to write your own converting functions.
