GitHub_Releases NiDB v2026.2.1362 (v2026.2.1362)

gbook2@stage.nitrcce.org (Greg Book) — Tue, 17 Feb 2026 17:37:57 GMT

This release removes exiftool as the default DICOM file reader and has migrated to DCMTK. exiftool was unstable and slow. The DCMTK library is much easier to use in the back-end, so we''re migrating there. Additionally, NiDB directly reads the Siemens CSA header in a single pass instead of opening a DICOM file 3 times to get all phase encoding direction tags. This significantly improves performance.

**Verify that your DICOM data is archiving correctly after upgrading to this version.**

[fix] edge cases of exiftool failing to read DICOM files

GitHub_Releases NiDB v2026.1.1333 (v2026.1.1333)

gbook2@stage.nitrcce.org (Greg Book) — Wed, 31 Dec 2025 20:05:54 GMT

This release removed GDCM and replaces it with exiftool (to read DICOM tags) and gdcmanon (to anonymize DICOM files). `exiftool` must be installed on the system. There are two workflows that might be impacted by this change:

- Archiving DICOM data
- Exporting data in NDA format -or- anonymizing exported DICOM data.

Make sure to verify that everything is working correctly for your data!
