Open file
Open a DICOM file (.dcm/.dicom) or a folder of them.
Loads a DICOM dataset from disk. Accepted: .dcm, .dicom, .DCM, .dcm.gz, and folders of the same — including a patient CD, whose DICOMDIR index is resolved to the files it references. A .zip is a dictionary archive rather than a study — see Settings → Standard docs.
What gets loaded
- The DICOM header (all tag groups) into the Tag tree.
- Pixel data into the viewport, if present.
- Study metadata into the right-rail Study tab.
Tip Keyboard:
⌘O. You can also drop a file onto the empty screen.
