Why Convert DCM to PDF file?

DICOM (the .dcm format) is the standard used by medical scanners such as MRI, CT, and X-ray machines, but it requires specialized software to open. Converting DCM to PDF places the scan image into a document that anyone can open, view, and print without a medical viewer. It is a convenient way to include a scan in a report, share it with a patient or colleague, or keep a readable copy in ordinary files.

A PDF is universally viewable and easy to print or email, which makes it ideal for everyday, non-clinical sharing of a medical image. It is worth remembering that the PDF holds only the picture, not the detailed measurement data a DICOM file carries, so for any diagnostic use the original .dcm should always be kept. For handing someone a clear, printable version of a scan, though, PDF is the accessible choice.
