          Provide a file to describe the find query.

   -u <uids.txt>
          Provide a file that contains a list of UIDs.

   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.

   If the same tag is given more than once with "-k" (or  if  the  tag  is
   listed  multiple  times in the query file, or appears in both the query
   file and as a "-k" option), then its  first  appearance  will  set  the
   column  number  that  it appears in.  Also, with regards to the search,
   the value specified in the final appearance of the  tag  as  an  option
   will be the value used for the search.

   If no attributes are specified with either "-k" or "-q", then a default
   set of query attributes will be used.
