I am using windows

This is the DCM file I am trying to convert to STL

Scans_rock_LowerJawScan.zip The file is what I received from a colleague to test if we could convert into a more conventional 3D file format like STL, X3D or OBJ I tried this project for STL. Any help is welcome for X3D or OBJ.
Thank you

Hi, I couldn't open your file neither. Even by using VTK9 with the extended Dicom Reader library. It says it is empty. I also tried it with the application ITK-Snap (btw - great tool with an UI and advanced segmentation features)... I cannot even read it with that. As it is only 9MB, could it be possibly empty? Do you have some more information? Thank you, Adrian
