DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) is the universally accepted standard for exchanging radiographic images among all manufacturers, both inside and outside the healthcare institution. It ensures compatibility between different imaging modalities and facilitates easy transfer of patient data between different healthcare providers. Health level-7 (HL7) is a standard for exchanging health-related information, but it is not specific to radiographic images. DICOM gray-scale function and ALARA are not standards for exchanging radiographic images.
