FAQ
DICOM to KTX2 Conversion
What are DICOM files?
DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) is a standard format used in the medical field for storing and transmitting medical images and related data. DICOM images can be in various formats, including CT scans, MRI scans, X-rays, and ultrasound images. DICOM images are designed to be compatible with medical equipment and software, and they contain metadata that describes the patient, imaging equipment, and other relevant information. This metadata allows medical professionals to access and analyze the images accurately and efficiently.
What are KTX2 files?
KTX2 (Khronos Texture 2.0) is a container file format for GPU-ready texture data, published by the Khronos Group as the successor to the original KTX format. A single file can hold 1D, 2D, 3D, cubemap and array textures together with their full mipmap chains, stored in the memory layout expected by graphics APIs such as Vulkan, OpenGL and OpenGL ES, so the contents can be uploaded to the video card with little or no additional processing. Besides plain block-compressed data, KTX2 supports supercompression: Basis Universal (ETC1S and UASTC) allows one file to be transcoded at load time into the format the target device actually needs, while Zstandard and ZLIB simply reduce file size. The format is the texture payload used by the glTF KHR_texture_basisu extension, which makes it common in 3D assets for the web, game engines and AR applications.
