MOD at a glance
MOD
MOD appeared with JVC's first Everio hard-disk camcorders around 2003, recording standard-definition MPEG-2 video in program stream containers as a pragmatic bridge between the DV tape era and later AVCHD adoption.
DCM at a glance
DCM
DICOM grew out of the need to exchange imaging data across scanners, archives, and clinical systems without throwing away the surrounding context that makes a medical image usable in practice.
