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.
JP2 stands for JPEG 2000, developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. It's a file format designed for high-quality image compression, supporting both lossy and lossless compression. Introduced in the year 2000, JP2 offers superior image quality and efficient storage over the standard JPEG format, making it suitable for medical imaging, digital cinema, and archives requiring high-fidelity imagery. Its advanced features include better handling of color, metadata, and progressive decoding, ensuring it remains a vital tool in professional and technical applications.
