Radiology folks — how do you handle DICOM de-identification?

Hi everyone!

I’m not a radiologist myself, I’m a software developer working on a cloud-based tool to help automate de-identification of DICOM images (removing PHI).

I want to make sure I'm not building something pointless, so I'd love to hear from you:

• How do you currently de-identify images?
• Do you use any software? Or is it manual?
• Is it time-consuming or annoying? Or is it no big deal?
• If you could improve this, what would you want?

I’m not here to sell anything, just genuinely trying to understand if this is even a real problem for you. Any experiences or thoughts appreciated!
