TYPICAL USAGE

SIMPLE USAGE
44       In order to display all the value for Patient Name (0010,0010) in the
45       directory name gdcmData, simply do:
46
47           $ gdcmscanner -t 10,10 -d gdcmData -p
48

COMPLEX USAGE
50       Because gdcmscanner does not support progress, you have to wait until
51       all files are traversed to see any results. This is quite cumbersome,
52       on UNIX this can be worked around with the following trick:
53
54           $ find gdcmData -type d -exec gdcmscanner -t 10,10 -d {} -p ';'
55
56       So all directory are locally traversed (no child directory are
57       recursively traversed), which means results comes out much faster.
