Files with the .DCM extension contain digital medical images as well as patient information, encoded in the standardized DICOM format, which is short for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine.
| File Extension | TIF |
| Full Name | Aldus Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) Bitmap Image |

What is file format conversion?
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "DCM") to another (referred to as "TIF"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, DCM file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format DCM to format TIF becomes essential.
So, how can we perform DCM to TIF file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format DCM and transforming it into format TIF. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of DCM to TIF converters.

- Load the DCM file to the application
- Select the output format of the TIF file (the one that we want to achieve)
- Select the location to save the output file TIF on the disk (the place where the program will save the converted file)
- Confirm conversion
- Wait for a moment
- Enjoy the converted TIF file that can be found in the location selected in step 4
