Intergraph Scanned Image | Intergraph | Raster Image Files |
The CIT file extension is a raster image format, developed by Intergraph. The CIT format is often used for storing data in medical imaging, such as CT and MRI scans. It is a bitmap image format, optimized for handling grayscale values with precision. The data structure of a CIT file allows it to store 8-bit images of any size or length, making it suitable for high-resolution images.
A standard CIT file contains an index of each data array, as well as information about the type and size of the image, line spacing, orientation and rendering options. Files extension CIT can also contain transfer curves and coding algorithms for varying the way the colors of an image are interpreted. Normally, colors are scaled to 8 bit depth; however, some Intergraph software packages can also handle 12 or 16 bit data. These images may also contain tags for overlay information which can be viewed on top of the main image.

Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .CIT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .CIT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .CIT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .CIT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .CIT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .CIT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .CIT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .CIT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .CIT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .CIT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
