Since most DICOM images are 16-bit and most image viewers for TIFF or JPEG files can only support 8-bit pixel, you’ll need to convert DICOM images to 8-bit first and then save them to TIFF or JPEG format. The following lists the steps: 1. Use the “New Stack” command to put the DICOM image slices into a stack. Open the image stack. 2. Use the “Image/Conversion/Convert to 8-bit Grayscale” to create a new 8-bit image file with all image slices. Use a TIFF file as the out. 3. Open the converted 8-bit image. Use the “File/Save/Save Image As” to save the stack to TIFF or JPEG files. Check the box “Separate Image Slices to Separate Files”.
