How to convert EDF to DICOM format ?

Is there any way to convert EDF files to DICOM format? I would like to store polisomnography data on PACS. I researcsed the net, but didn't find EDF to DICOM converter,

Couldn't you just use any of the gazillion screen capture programs to make JPGs of each 30 second epoch of the EDF viewer and then use an open sourced converter to make the DICOM from these JPGs?

This FREEWARE seems interesting and DICOM capable. http://www.xnview.com/en/xnview/ Sorry, it only READS DICOM not write.

Hold on, if using Matlab, which can open EDF
