Support of other file types #87

Closed kelades closed 4 months ago

kelades commented 6 months ago

Hello! I am using difPy for image comparison tasks, however, I work frequently with DICOM images (.dcm), which are not currently supported due to its reliance on the Pillow library.

Is supporting other file types besides those currently supported by the Pillow library, a feature you are considering? Alternatively, could you provide guidance on how I could modify the code to process other file types?

Thank you

Hi @kelades,

Thanks for your request! Unfortunately, DICOM support is this is not something that will be considered for difPy.

Feel free to fork the repo and build your own solution around that. If you have any questions regarding the code, feel free to reach out!

Best, Elise
