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

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

The communication protocol is an application protocol that uses TCP/IP to communicate between systems.

DICOM files can be exchanged between two entities that are capable of receiving image and patient data in DICOM format.

The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) holds the copyright to this standard.

It was developed by the DICOM Standards Committee, whose members are also partly members of NEMA.

Medical imaging is the technique and process of creating visual representations of the interior of a body for clinical analysis and medical intervention, as well as visual representation of the function of some organs or tissues (physiology).

Medical imaging seeks to reveal internal structures hidden by the skin and bones, as well as to diagnose and treat disease.

Medical imaging also establishes a database of normal anatomy and physiology to make it possible to identify abnormalities.

Although imaging of removed organs and tissues can be performed for medical reasons, such procedures are usually considered part of pathology instead of medical imaging.

Computer software, or simply software, is that part of a computer system that consists of data or computer instructions, in contrast to the physical hardware from which the system is built.

In computer science and software engineering, computer software is all information processed by computer systems, programs and data.

Computer software includes computer programs, libraries and related non-executable data, such as online documentation or digital media.

Computer hardware and software require each other and neither can be realistically used on its own.

In chemistry, a solution is a homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances.

In such a mixture, a solute is a substance dissolved in another substance, known as a solvent.

The mixing process of a solution happens at a scale where the effects of chemical polarity are involved, resulting in interactions that are specific to solvation.

The solution assumes the characteristics of the solvent (i.e., its phase) when the solvent is the larger fraction of the mixture, as is commonly the case.

The concentration of a solute in a solution is the mass of that solute expressed as a percentage of the mass of the whole solution.

Design is the creation of a plan or convention for the construction of an object, system or measurable human interaction (as in architectural blueprints, engineering drawings, business processes, circuit diagrams, and sewing patterns).

Design has different connotations in different fields (see below).

In some cases, the direct construction of an object (as in pottery, engineering, management, coding, and graphic design) is also considered to use design thinking.
