In DICOM Search<\/a> 1.3, you can now convert the DICOM images in your search results to other formats, like png, tif, jpeg, bmp, and gif.<\/p>\n

You need to first run a query to retrieve some images.\u00a0 Let’s search for all MR images for the brain, from the sample images<\/a> used by our tutorial<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This returns 13 images.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Let’s convert those 13 images to another format.\u00a0 Click on the Copy images<\/strong> button.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This brings up the Copy Images<\/strong> window.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Enter the folder to copy\/export the images to.\u00a0 If you don’t select the Convert image to another format<\/strong>, then the files will just be copied from the source folder to the selected folder.<\/p>\n

If you do select the Convert image to another format<\/strong> option, you can select the format to convert to.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Note that only the TIFF format supports multi-frame images.<\/p>\n

In this example, we will also add a gray border around our image, so that the tag values from our information profile<\/a> do not overlap with our images.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When converting our DICOM images, we also have the option of using our information profile<\/a> to embed DICOM tag values into the converted images.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Let’s select the Generic<\/strong> information profile<\/a>, and click Next<\/strong> to start the export\/conversion process.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is one of the exported images.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As you can see, we added a gray border around our image, but perhaps we could have made the left border larger, as the tag value covers part of the image.\u00a0 Or we could have made the information profile<\/a> font smaller.\u00a0 Or we could adjust our information profile<\/a>\u00a0so that the values are only displayed on the right sides.\u00a0 There are so many options open to us, so do experiment to see what works best for you.<\/p>\n
