% code
% 793 is a dicom image
DICOM_image = dicomread('793');
info = dicominfo('793');
window_center = info.WindowCenter;
window_width = info.WindowWidth;
rescale_slope = info.RescaleSlope;
rescale_intercept = info.RescaleIntercept;
low = abs(info.RescaleIntercept)-abs(info.WindowCenter)+30;
high = low+info.WindowWidth;
figure, imshow(DICOM_image, [low high]);
[nrows, ncols] = size(DICOM_image);
output_image = zeros(size(DICOM_image));
new_image = zeros(nrows, ncols);
max_pixel_intensity = 255;
for i = 1:nrows
for j = 1:ncols
new_image(i, j) = DICOM_image(i, j) * rescale_slope + rescale_intercept;
if (new_image(i, j) < (window_center - window_width / 2))
output_image(i, j) = 0;
else if (new_image(i, j) > (window_center + window_width / 2))
output_image(i, j) = max_pixel_intensity;
else
output_image (i, j) = (max_pixel_intensity / window_width) * (new_image(i, j) + window_width / 2 - window_center);
end
end
end
end
output_image = uint8(output_image);
figure, imshow(output_image);
imwrite(output_image,'converted.jpg');
Hope it helps, Let me Know

  1. What is 30 ? it works but why ?
low = abs(info.RescaleIntercept)-abs(info.WindowCenter)+30;
2. +window_width/2 shall not be existing in below code.
output_image (i, j) = (max_pixel_intensity / window_width) * (new_image(i, j) + window_width / 2 - window_center);
Have nice day !

It is not possible to convert DICOM to JPG or PNG without losing metadata.
For JPEG files you could convert convert the metadata to some kind of string encoding, and then include it in the file as an EXIF "Description" field, provided that the encoding of the metadata does not occupy more than 64 Kb; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exif
PNG does not have EXIF. You can, though, encode arbitrary metadata as name=value strings; see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9542359/does-png-contain-exif-data-like-jpg -- or at least you could in theory, as imwrite() does not support that. You could, though, instead use the same technique as described above, encoding the metadata as strings (somehow) and then use imwrite() to PNG with the 'Description' name/value pair.
Working out how to convert all of the metadata to strings that could later be parsed would be up to you.
