About ECG files
Electrocardiogram (ECG) files are essential in monitoring heart activity, often used by healthcare professionals for diagnosis. These files come in various formats, such as .ecg, .dcm (DICOM), and .xml. Each format has its own specifications, making conversion a complex task due to the need for maintaining data integrity.
Conversion of ECG files is crucial for compatibility with different software used in healthcare. For instance, converting to .pdf allows easier sharing and printing, while converting to .csv enables data analysis in spreadsheet software. Furthermore, converting to .wav or .mp3 can help in audio playback for educational purposes.
There are several software options for converting ECG files. Adobe Acrobat can be used to convert ECGs into PDFs, while Microsoft Excel is handy for CSV conversions. For audio file conversions, Audacity is a popular choice.
For more technical insights, you can read about ECG formats on Wikipedia.

The ECG Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.
When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.
Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best ECG converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
