\section usage Typical usage
\section simple_usage Simple usage
In order to display all the value for Patient Name (0010,0010) in the directory name \b gdcmData, simply do:

\verbatim
$ gdcmscanner -t 10,10 -d gdcmData -p
\endverbatim

\section complex_usage Complex usage

Because gdcmscanner does not support progress, you have to wait until all files are traversed to see any results. This is quite cumbersome, on linux this can be worked around with the following trick:

\verbatim
$ find gdcmData -type d -exec gdcmscanner -t 10,10 -d {} -p \; 
\endverbatim

So all directory are locally traversed (no child directory are recursively traversed), which means results comes out much faster.
