What people say after the first batch

Last updated on August 28, 2026
I regularly work with Leica SCN files in my pathology lab, and reaConverter has been a lifesaver when I need to convert them to TIFF or JPEG for collaboration. The batch processing feature saves me so much time, and the output quality remains excellent, no loss of detail even at high magnifications. The software is intuitive, and I appreciate that it preserves metadata during conversion. Highly recommended for digital pathology workflows!

reaConverter handles straightforward SCN-to-TIFF/JPEG conversions efficiently, which is helpful for sharing slides with collaborators who don’t have Leica software. The interface is user-friendly, and I’ve had no issues with standard brightfield images.

FAQ

SCN to DIS Conversion

What are SCN files?

The Leica SCN file format is a proprietary digital pathology image format used primarily by Leica Microsystems for storing high-resolution whole-slide images (WSI) generated by their slide scanners, such as those in the Leica Aperio series. These files are commonly used in histology, pathology, and biomedical research for viewing, analyzing, and sharing scanned tissue samples.

What are DIS files?

The DIS extension is associated with the DKB Ray-Tracer, a piece of software originally created by David Kirk Buck and Aaron A. Collins, which served as a predecessor for the POV Ray-Tracer. The latter software has the capacity to generate images from text-based scene descriptions and works on various platforms. Though fairly popular on PC/MS-DOS platforms at its release, the DIS format is now obsolete. It can, however, be viewed and converted to more accessible formats.
