Ken,

I would highly recommend that you look at Mimics from Materialise. They
have written CT/MRI interfaces for most if not all scanners.

        Unfortunately, most medical image formats are proprietary, and the
        extentions usually don't mean that much, with a few exceptions...I'd
suggest
        taking a look at the medical image format FAQ at
        http://idt.net/~dclunie/medical-image-faq/html/
        for more information. BTW, why would you want to convert TO one of
those
        formats? Usually people want to do it the other way around...

        good luck,
