+(*) DICOM files typically have a `.dcm` file extension.
+(**) Some files are typically compressed and their extension may incorporate the corresponding
+compression tool extension (e.g. `.nii.gz`).
 
 From the MRI scanner, images are initially collected in the DICOM format and can be converted to these other formats to make working with the data easier.
