ST5 to DCM Conversion: FAQ
What are ST5 files?
The ST5 extension is attached to RAW images shot with the ST-X model of SBIG CCD cameras. The format is also known as Santa Barbara Instruments Astronomical Image and SBIG represents a brand of specialized imaging cameras, mostly used in astronomy, color photometry, medical imaging and a few other scientific and industrial sectors. As part of these niche uses, ST5 images are considered rare and are probably difficult to open using regular image viewers.
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.
