See:


To do the converse operation, copying a CD to an ISO image, just do:

dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/path/to/cdimage.iso


To mount an ISO without physically burning it to a CD:

modprobe loop LOOP=`losetup -f` losetup $LOOP /path/to/cdimage.iso mount -t iso9660 -o ro $LOOP /mnt ... # when finished umount /mnt losetup -d $LOOP # this step may happen automatically when you umount

or see Arch Wiki on fuseiso.
