- Description
- The DC3 file type is associated with the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard, which is widely used for storing and transmitting medical imaging information. It encompasses a range of image types, including X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans, supporting the integration of medical imaging data across various devices and systems. DC3 files contain the image data along with patient information and details about the imaging process, ensuring a comprehensive dataset for medical diagnosis and treatment planning. This format plays a crucial role in healthcare by facilitating the easy exchange and accessibility of medical images within and between medical facilities.
- A WEBP file is an image saved in the WebP (pronounced "Weppy") raster image format developed by Google for web graphics. It is designed to reduce image file sizes over standard JPEG compression while maintaining the same or similar quality. WEBP files allow images to be downloaded more quickly.
