PLT to DCM Conversion: FAQ

What are PLT files?

PLT is a vector image format representing the HPGL standard language developed by Hewlett-Packard for printing line drawings. HPGL is supported by AutoCAD and other CAD software programs. PLT files represent plotter images that can be printed using a computer printer specialized in vector graphics (called "plotter"), which renders images as lines not as dots.

What are DCM files?

A DCM file is a DICOM file, meaning it follows the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard for storing, transmitting, and managing medical imaging data. This standard ensures interoperability between medical imaging equipment and software, allowing images to be shared across scanners, servers, workstations, and network systems.
