RAS to DCM Conversion: FAQ
What are RAS files?
The RAS file extension represents the CALS Raster File Format, a standard developed by the U.S. Department of Defense for the interchange of monochrome raster graphics. It is primarily used for storing high-resolution, black-and-white images such as engineering drawings, technical manuals, and scanned documents. CALS RAS files are typically used in military, aerospace, and government applications due to their consistency and archival suitability. The format supports compression and is optimized for printing and long-term storage.
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. DCM files are most commonly used in hospitals, clinics, and private medical practices that rely on medical imaging equipment such as CT, MRI, and ultrasound devices.
