DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) offers strict requirements on the contents of the image header and the form of the pixel data itself for each type of modality in order to improve interoperability. ACR (American College of Radiology) is a professional organization that promotes high standards of practice in radiology but does not offer specific requirements for image data format. TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is a communication protocol used for internet communication and does not relate to image data format. COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) refers to commercially available software or hardware products and does not relate to image data format.
