DICOM utility

Used for converting one CT DICOM series folder to a HU NIfTI volume with affine evidence. Not for multi-frame DICOM or clinical use.

[Skill on GitHub](https://github.com/NVIDIA-Medtech/medical-AI-skills/tree/dev/skills/dicom-series-to-volume) [Agent Skills spec](https://agentskills.io)

### Run it with an agent

Install the skill, then just ask your agent in plain language. `medagent.dicom_series_to_volume`

install skill Copy

```bash
npx skills add NVIDIA-Medtech/medical-AI-skills --skill dicom-series-to-volume
```

Try saying

“Convert the CT DICOM series in fixtures/sample\_series to a HU-scaled NIfTI file and tell me the output geometry. Use dicom-series-to-volume.”

“I need a NIfTI version of the CT series in exports/series\_3 for downstream segmentation — run dicom-series-to-volume and show the output path.”
