Convert DICOM to JNG

DICOM, or Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine, is a standardized file format used in the field of medical imaging. It facilitates the storage, exchange, and transmission of medical images and related information between devices from different manufacturers, ensuring interoperability in healthcare environments. Originating from efforts by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) and the American College of Radiology (ACR) in the 1980s, DICOM's evolution has played a crucial role in the development of advanced medical imaging technologies and systems.

The JPEG Network Graphics (JNG) file extension is designed for storing JPEG-encoded image data within the PNG file format. Introduced as part of the MNG (Multiple-image Network Graphics) format, JNG was created to provide a flexible, high-quality image format that supports both lossy and lossless compression. It is particularly useful in applications requiring the integration of JPEG compression within a wider range of data types and multimedia elements. Though not widely adopted, JNG offers enhanced compatibility and versatility for complex imaging tasks in computer graphics and web development.
