Human Usability
When-to-Use and When-Not-to-Use sections are clearly stated; error scenarios and recovery paths are documented for typical clinical/medical data processing use cases.

Key Strengths

  • De-anonymization refusal now fully documented with explicit response template, one-way hashing explanation, and institutional governance referral
  • Comprehensive PHI tag coverage with 50+ DICOM tags mapped to clear clear/hash/replace actions
  • Excellent security design: PHI values hashed not stored, audit log contains only hashes and pseudonyms
  • Stress-Case Rules block with 5 mandatory sections ensures consistent structured output for complex requests
  • Graceful degradation when pydicom is unavailable — provides manual checklist fallback instead of failing silently
