Extracting DICOM Metadata

Reads DICOM file headers and DICOM-SR (Structured Report) content to pull study/series metadata and embedded report text, and flags PHI carried in header tags. Use before OpenMed processing when ingesting imaging data (CT/MR/CR/US, radiology SR) and you need the report narrative de-identified and analyzed, plus a list of header tags that must be scrubbed. Hand SR/report text to openmed.deidentify and openmed.analyze_text; use pydicom to read tags. Trigger keywords: DICOM, pydicom, DICOM-SR, structured report, PatientName, study metadata, PACS, radiology report, PS3.
