Yes. One of our professors here did exactly that with an MRI image of his brain. On Thu, Dec 19, 2019 at 04:55:01PM -0500, Tim Keller via WLUG wrote:
I wonder if there's a way you could export the MRI into a format that you could eventually get into an STL so we could print it! How'd you'd like your heart printed in eye melt orange!

I found this last night which seems promising, but I don't have DICOM files to test with:

Thanks! I'm at work now, stuck on a Windows machine, but I googled "linux dicom viewer" and got some interesting results that I'll have to try later. I also brought the disc into work with me and tried the bundled Windows viewer. It offers the option to export the encrypted images, but exports them with no file extension, and I don't know what kind of files they are. GIMP opens them and display something, but I don't think it's displaying them correctly.

includes several articles about either Open or Free Software that runs on Linux and allows you to view these files.
I had a massive heart attack three years ago, and I think it was "aeskulap" software that I used to view what was left of my beating heart.
Also, by opening up the software manager app on Mint and searching for "MRI" I found several tools already packaged up. Ubuntu and Fedora also seem to have the same types of software.

I picked up a copy of some x-rays and MRIs. They're on a CD, encrypted, with Windows viewer software. Has anyone figured out how to view these in Linux? I have the password to decrypt, I just don't know what software to use (without resorting to Windows).
I think it may actually be a DICOM file format.
Here's a link to the viewer software: https://sorna.com/solutions/reviewer/
