How do I convert a DICOM file to PNG using LetsConvert?

Upload your DICOM file via the upload button, select PNG as the output format, and click 'Convert'. The tool processes the image client-side and lets you download the PNG file instantly. For batch conversion, drag multiple DICOM files into the queue and convert them all at once to PNG.

Why should I convert from DICOM to PNG?

DICOM is a standard for medical imaging containing patient metadata and multi-frame data, while PNG is a lossless raster format widely supported by web browsers and image editors. Converting DICOM to PNG simplifies sharing scans with patients, embedding images in reports, or using them in presentations without advanced medical imaging software.

How does the conversion handle DICOM metadata and image depth?

The converter preserves the original resolution and color depth where possible, but PNG does not support DICOM's 32-bit floating-point data or multi-frame video. For standard 16-bit grayscale DICOMs, the tool scales to 8-bit grayscale PNG to maintain visual fidelity. Patient metadata is removed from the PNG itself but is available as a separate DICOM header export if enabled.
