Several repositories process clinical or human-subjects data. Before adding data to any repository:
- Never commit identifiable data, including in filenames. A filename carrying a participant's name, initials or body measurements is identifiable data regardless of the file's contents.
- Raw media and instrument output belong in an access-controlled store, not in git. Git keeps everything you ever committed.
- Pseudonymisation must break the linkage. Note that
scimagR::anonymize_dicom()does not meet DICOM PS3.15 Basic Application Level Confidentiality: it leaves the Study/Series/SOP UID chain, dates, age, sex and accession number intact, so its output remains re-linkable to the source PACS. Do not use it to prepare data for sharing. - Deployments that expose cohort data need authentication. The
zhncommandRdocker recipe publishes an unauthenticated dashboard over TLS and must not be pointed at real data as shipped.
