- ↑ For a number of dMRI formats we recommend use of the DICOM to NRRD converter before loading the data into Slicer.
- ↑ Limited support for writing image volumes in DICOM format is provided by the Create DICOM Series module. Support of writing DICOM Segmentation Objects is provided by the Reporting extension
