Reverse conversion

DCM at a glance

DCM

Convert to DCM when the output must remain part of a medical-imaging workflow, preserving both image data and associated study metadata.

It is the correct target for diagnostic, archival, and interoperable clinical imaging systems.

HWP at a glance

HWP

Convert to HWP when the recipient workflow is built around Hancom Hangul, particularly in Korean-language government, academic, or business environments.

It is appropriate for editable forms, official templates, and collaborative word-processing when local compatibility matters more than global default support.

For international exchange, DOCX or PDF may be easier, but HWP is the practical target inside Hangul-centric environments.
