       Dump  selected  metadata  from  a DICOM directory to a csv file.  For each attribute to be
       extracted, the tag can be given with "-k" (the "-k" option can be repeated as  many  times
       as  needed).   Tags  can  given  in  hexadecimal  GGGG,EEEE  format,  or in text format as
       specified in the DICOM dictionary.  Alternately, the tags can be listed in  a  query  file
       given  with the "-q" option (one tag per line).  Attributes nested within sequences can be
       specified by giving a tag path e.g. "-k Tag1/Tag2/Tag3".  Either  a  forward  slash  or  a
       backslash  can  be  used  to  separate the components of the path.  Private tags should be
       preceded by the private dictionary name in square brackets.
