3.3.0

We are excited to announce dcm2bids 3.3.0!

This release brings several improvements to make DICOM-to-BIDS conversion more robust, flexible, and easier to maintain.

✨ Highlights

• Dynamic BIDS schema: automatic entity extraction and validation now leverage the BIDS schema dynamically.
• More flexible DICOM criteria. Criteria can now match based on the absence of DICOM tags, with improved handling of AcquisitionTime and regex/bracket matching.
• Automatic update of participants.tsv file.
• Better validation & diagnostics, improved configuration validation and clearer reporting of skipped DICOM images from dcm2niix.
• Modernized & more robust distribution, updated packaging with pyproject.toml, refreshed dependencies/Docker image, and improved CI, testing, and Windows support.

This release also includes fixes and improvements contributed by our growing community.

Thanks to everyone who contributed code, reported issues, improved the documentation, and helped test dcm2bids! ❤️
