DCM, short for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine, is a file extension used for medical imaging data. Originating from the DICOM standard developed by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association in collaboration with the American College of Radiology in the 1980s, it facilitates the storage, transmission, and management of medical images and related information across various devices. Its uses span hospitals and clinics, where it integrates imaging modalities like MRI, CT scans, and X-rays, ensuring interoperability and enhancing diagnostic accuracy and efficiency.
The PCX file extension, standing for PiCture eXchange, is a raster image format developed by ZSoft Corporation in 1985 for its PC Paintbrush software. It became one of the first widely accepted DOS imaging standards, supporting palette-indexed images from 2 to 256 colors and later true-color (24-bit) images. PCX files use RLE (Run-Length Encoding) compression, making them smaller in size. Although largely replaced by formats like BMP, JPEG, and PNG, PCX was pivotal in early computer graphics and is still supported by various image processing software.
