What is a DCM file?
The DCM file type stores digital images related to the medical field, more specifically related to the patients such as CT Scans, MRIs, and Ultrasound reports.

It has eased the work of the medical professionals by creating a single format, DICOM (Digital Image and Communications in Medicine).
