DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) is a standard for handling, storing, printing, and transmitting information in medical imaging.

It works for local transaction, but for networking events also.

It includes a file format definition and a network communications protocol.

Ruby DICOM supports reading from, editing and writing to this file format.

It also features experimental support for network communication modalities like query, move, sending and receiving files.
