0.2 18.12.2025 Updated to reflect the two-phase workflow: local anonymization followed by upload of selected anonymized studies.

0.4 22.05.2026 Updated workflow to reflect support for flexible DICOM input folder structures. Patient, study, and series grouping is now described as metadata-based rather than folder-name-based. Updated clinical data matching rules to clarify that Study_ID may repeat across different patients and that matching is based on Patient_ID + Study_ID. Added notes on the corrected one-time upload workflow for multiple patient/study groups. Ibrahim Saracoglu / Development Team
0.5 11.06.2026 Revised guideline text to align with the latest implementation. Updated sections on privacy-by-design, workflow overview, upload validation, clinical metadata handling, anonymization profiles, retention, appendices, and audit logs. Removed outdated statements about fixed folder structures and universal date shifting. Clarified that exact field handling is defined by the selected JSON anonymization profile.
