The dcm_validate repository serves as a centralized collection of all dcm_qa repositories. Each dcm_qa repository provides concise, illustrative examples of specific DICOM image file features. This repository acts as an index, bringing together these independent modules for easier access and management.
To clone this repository and initialize all submodules, use the following commands:
git submodule update --init --recursive
git clone [email protected]:neurolabusc/dcm_validate.git
cd dcm_validate
